India Illustrated With Pen and Pencil

About The Book : Egypt Illustrated with Pen and Pencil is an unchanged, high-quality reprint of the original edition of 1891. We see, even now, the multiplication of schools, colleges, churches, and other features of Christian civilization, molded by Occidental ideas, yet adapted to Oriental conditions. In journeying forty-five hundred miles from place to place in India, the past year, the writer has been impressed by the intellectual ferment found, by the advances in science and by the urgency and promise of the missionary enterprise. That 8000 entries are yearly made in the official catalogue of vernacular and English works written mainly by Hindus, and on religion more than on any theme, is a notable evidence of that ferment. A pile of missionary reports examined, and personal inspection of work doing in schools and churches, satisfy me that Buddhist theosophy will never tear Christianity in tatters.
