Sikhim and Bhutan: Twenty-One Years on the Northeast Frontier 1887-1908 is a book written by J. Claude White, a British administrator who served in the Indian Civil Service. The book chronicles White's experiences during his time in the Northeast Frontier of India, particularly in the regions of Sikhim and Bhutan, from 1887 to 1908. The book provides a detailed account of the political and social conditions of the region during that period. White writes about the various tribes and communities that inhabited the area, their customs and traditions, and their relations with each other and with the British administration. He also describes the natural beauty of the region, its flora and fauna, and the challenges posed by its rugged terrain.The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of the Northeast Frontier of India. It provides a rare insight into the workings of the British administration in the region and the impact it had on the local communities. It is also a fascinating account of a bygone era, when the region was still largely unexplored and its people lived in relative isolation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
