Under The Sun is a book that offers a fascinating glimpse into the cities of India, as seen through the eyes of the author, Perceval Landon. The book is a collection of impressions and observations that Landon made during his travels through India, and it provides a unique perspective on the country's culture, history, and people.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different city in India. Landon provides detailed descriptions of the sights, sounds, and smells of each city, as well as his own personal reactions to the places he visited. From the bustling streets of Calcutta to the tranquil beauty of Kashmir, Landon's descriptions bring each city to life and offer readers a vivid picture of what it was like to travel through India in the early 20th century.One of the most interesting chapters in the book deals with the later life of Nana Sahib, a prominent figure in Indian history who played a key role in the Indian Rebellion of 1857. Landon provides a detailed account of Nana Sahib's life after the rebellion, including his eventual exile to Nepal and his efforts to regain his status in Indian society.Overall, Under The Sun is a fascinating and engaging book that offers a unique perspective on India's cities and its people. Landon's vivid descriptions and personal insights make this book a must-read for anyone interested in Indian history, culture, or travel.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
