The Cruleans, Vol. 1 of 2

ISBN: 9781331028284
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
Excerpt from The Cruleans, Vol. 1 of 2: A Vacation Idyll English travellers, and still more English exiles in the east, love the C rulean Mountains for their suggestive resemblance to the Surrey Hills. They love them, too, for their blue, transparent atmosphere; their sweet sylvan vistas; their woodlands thick with wild roses; their undulating stretches of sward, where the horseman may gallop as freely as on the Brighton downs. Unlike the gorgeous outlines of the great ranges of the north, - Simla with its wide perspective and snow-clad horizon, Naini-Tal clinging to its precipitous mountain side, or the far-off, awful, chilling majesty of Everest and Kinchinjunga, - the C ruleans win you by a loveliness which owes much of its fascination to being essentially homely.
