Book Description
Excerpt from Ceylon: A Handbook for the Resident and the Traveller Soon after my arrival in Ceylon in 1896, I was forcibly struck with the absence of any reliable modern handbook of the island, and about seven years ago began to collect notes for such a book, jotting down upon memorandum tablets all those items which I considered ought to be included. As these accumulated, they were sorted under heads, and the chapters gradually took shape in outline. Alter 1901 two or three books upon the island appeared, notably the excellent handbook for the St. Louis Exhibition, which in some ways fulfilled my idea of what was wanted, but was written for people outside the colony. Having in vain endeavoured to persuade one who was much better qualified than myself to write a book upon Ceylon, I at last decided to do so, and began in 1905, but was interrupted by a serious accident. Commencing with the idea of writing a comprehensive work of perhaps 1,000 pages, I devoted my leisure from October 1905 to a chapter on the agriculture of the colony. To gel this into a form comparatively satisfactory to myself took no less than eight months, and it would have covered 125 pages of the present book. It consequently seemed to me advisable to work this up into a book upon agriculture in the tropics generally. This was done, and the book will, I hope, shortly appear. If now my own subject were to take so long, and occupy so much space, it was very evident that I could not hope to complete the work under 10 years, and when completed, it would be so bulky that no one would read it, while the keeping up to date of the chapters already written would be a most formidable task.
