THE TRIBES ON MY FRONTIER 



AN INDIAN NATURALIST'S FOREIGN POLICY. 



By EHA. 

 WITH FIFTY ILLUSTRATIONS BY F. C. MACRAE. 



IN this remarkably clever work there are most graphically and humor- 

 ously described the surroundings of a Mofussil bungalow. The twenty 

 chapters embrace a year's experiences, and provide endless sources of 

 amusement and suggestion. The numerous able illustrations add very 

 greatly to the interest of the volume, which will find a -place on every 

 table. 



Field. " It is a very clever record of a year's observations round the bunga- 

 low in ' Dustypore.' . . . It is by no means a mere travesty. . . . The writer is 

 always amusing, and never dull." 



Chambers 's Journal. " The book is cleverly illustrated by Mr. F. C. Macrae. 

 We have only to thank our Anglo-Indian naturalist for the delightful book which he 

 has sent home to his countrymen in Britain. May he live to give us another such." 



Allen's Indian Mail. "A most charming series of sprightly and entertaining 

 essays on what may be termed the fauna of the Indian bungalow. . . . We 

 have no doubt that this amusing book will find its way into every Anglo-Indian's 

 library." 



Knowledge. " This is a delightful book, irresistibly funny in description and 

 illustration, but full of genuine science too. . . . There is not a dull or uninstruc- 

 tive page in the whole book." 



Graphic. " It is a pleasantly written book about the insects and other 

 torments of India which make Anglo-Indian life unpleasant, and which can be 

 read with pleasure even by those beyond the reach of the tormenting things Kha 

 describes." 



Saturday Review. "The volume is full of accurate and unfamiliar obser- 

 vation."
