Cradle of Mankind

A. Wigram W., A. Wigram Edgar T.

Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Similarly, it has been stated that it takes two people at least to write a book of travel a newcomer to give the first impressions and an old resident to reveal the true inwardness of things. Though the quality of the ingredients must remain Of more importance than the proportions, the authors Of the present volume hope that at least the latter are correct. One of the writers has spent but three months in the country, the other has lived there for ten years. One was quite ignorant of the East, and spoke no word of any Oriental language; the other had become. So intimate with the tribesmen of his own locality, that they had even begun to tell him of their superstitions - the last secret that they ever disclose.
