"On the Indian Hills, Or, Coffee-planting in Southern India, Volume 1" offers a fascinating glimpse into the life of coffee planters in 19th-century Southern India. Written by Edwin Lester Linden Arnold, this volume provides a detailed account of the challenges and rewards of establishing and maintaining coffee plantations in the Indian hills.
Arnold's narrative captures the essence of the colonial experience, blending practical advice with vivid descriptions of the natural landscape and local culture. Readers will gain insight into the daily routines, economic considerations, and social interactions that defined the lives of European planters and the Indian communities that supported their endeavors.
This historical account is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of coffee cultivation, British colonialism in India, and the intersection of culture and agriculture in a bygone era.
