A most attractively illustrated narrative of the western Himalayas, unusual for the use of chromo-lithography. Writing from Simla, Torrens comments [that] “*you, my readers, will have yawned or laughed over, been bored or amused, by the perusal of my narrative long before the publication will meet its author’s eyes.”*
