. The new Miscellany .... has been right worthily inaugurated by a reprint of Bernier's Travels in India, which must 

 delight the scholar and lover of books. The Bombay Gazette.

The excellent editing as well as outward get-up .... are a guarantee that this new venture .... will supply a long- 

 felt want. The Times of India. 



The student will know how to prize the work, and the general reader will find it very interesting reading. The 

 Manchester Guardian. 



Since their first appearance in Paris, in 1670, many have been the reprints and translations of Bernier's Travels 



With all this, however, the book itself is not easily accessible. In offering the English Public a new edition of it, Messrs. 

 Archibald Constable and Co. have therefore no need to apologize. It is a fact that until this publication no really satisfactory 

 edition has existed. It is now edited not only with great care, but also with a laudable regard to the needs of the general 

 reader. The Anti-Jacobin. 



The book abounds with curious scenes and anecdotes of native life in India, amusing in themselves and interesting for 



comparison with the ways, habits and ideas of modern India The running glossary of Indian terms and words is very 



useful ; so are the brief notices of distinguished persor s and remarkable places mentioned in the text ; there is also a chronicle 

 of Bernier's life, a bibliography of his works, and an excellent index. The Speaker. 



The book is of almost indispensable necessity to the reader of history, being accurate and painstaking to a high degree. 

 The Academy. 



The volume has been admirably edited and illustrated. The numerous allusions in the text to individuals, places, 

 productions of art and industry, &c., are well explained in brief but sufficient notes, which contain the results of careful 

 research in contemporary historians, and of an intimate personal acquaintance with Indian life and industry at the present day.
