Excerpt from The Land of the Veda: Being Personal Reminiscences of India In a theme like that of India, and after the reading and note taking of fifteen years, it is a difficult task for an author to trace every entry to its source, or adequately to discriminate between what is original and what is borrowed. Every reasonable effort, however, has been made to give proper acknowledgment wherever it was found desirable to use the ideas or language of others.
