Undated but circa 1910. 32pp, with one colour plate illustration and further monochrome illustrations in text. In red light card wrappers, stapled. 12mo. Covers a little shelf worn, gently rubbed at corners and spine ends. Previous owner's name neatly inked on front cover. Internally a few signs of handling and a little bleed at corners of first leaf, else neat and clean.
An unusal little booklet, part of the 'Magic Carpet' series designed to transport young readers to various different parts of the world. This volume covers India but it is not a travelogue, more a series of snapshot of typical features (as seen from a very period perspective).
