" It is simply a series of village sketches of character, manners, and scenery, but the book is 

 full of a quiet sustained, humour, genuine pathos, simple unaffected poetry, and displays not only 

 fine imaginative power, but a hearty sympathy with nature in all her aspects, and with the 

 simple tastes and pleasures of rustic life. A more delightful book we cannot imagine." Man- 

 chester Advertiser.

"A picture of Indian life which it is impossible not to admire. We have no hesitation in 

 saying, that a more perfect knowledge of India is to be acquired from an attentive perusal and
