A Trip to Tissa: Ceylon (1884) is a travelogue written by Robert Burleigh Campbell. The book is a vivid account of the author's journey to Tissa, a small town located in the southern part of Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), during the late 19th century. The book is divided into several chapters, each describing a different aspect of the journey, such as the author's experiences with the local people, the landscape, and the flora and fauna of the region. Campbell's writing is highly descriptive, and he provides a detailed account of the sights, sounds, and smells of the places he visits. He also offers insights into the social and cultural practices of the people he encounters, including their religious beliefs, customs, and traditions. The book is an interesting historical document, as it provides a glimpse into life in Ceylon during the colonial era. It also sheds light on the impact of British colonialism on the region, as well as the interactions between the colonizers and the native population. Overall, A Trip to Tissa: Ceylon (1884) is a fascinating travelogue that offers a unique perspective on a bygone era. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history and culture of Sri Lanka, as well as those who enjoy travel writing and adventure stories.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
