About The Book: This book delves into the enchanting world of the Indian Hills and the art of coffee cultivation in Southern India. Within its pages, readers are treated to a mesmerizing journey through uncharted Indian wilderness, vividly portraying its rich natural diversity and untapped potential for forestry, plantations, and hunting. Meticulously curated by the author's son from long-cherished notes, these narratives eschew the well-worn paths of Indian travel. Instead, they plunge deep into the unexplored southern jungles of Hindostan, providing a refreshing and unvarnished account of life in these vast, barely-charted woodlands of the Madras peninsula. The book's appeal lies in its ability to transport readers to the enigmatic East, narrating captivating stories of Asian hill life with graceful simplicity. About The Author: Edwin Lester Arnold (1857–1935), an English writer, is best known for "Lieut. Gullivar Jones: His Vacation," an early example of planetary romance. He was born in Swanscombe, Kent, spent his childhood in India, and later studied agriculture and ornithology in England. Arnold began his career as a journalist and authored several books. While "Lieut. Gullivar Jones" initially received modest attention, it is now recognized as a significant influence on 20th-century science fiction, possibly inspiring Edgar Rice Burroughs' Barsoom series.
