THE ENGLISH REVIEW.

“The tone of bold and careless frankness in which this interesting and instructive work is written, is singularly attractive. ‘Les Indoos peints par eux-mêmes’ might be its title.”

WESTMINSTER AND FOREIGN QUARTERLY REVIEW.

“But we must here take leave of a work in which we have felt a more than ordinary interest; the spirit with which the various events of a prolonged residence in the East are delineated, the beautiful illustrations, and the graphic descriptions of scenery, will ensure for the book a favourable reception from every reader.”

NAVAL AND MILITARY GAZETTE.

“If we admire the book much for its external beauty, we admire it still more for its internal merit—for the infinite variety, curiosity, and interest of its contents.”

THE COURT JOURNAL.

“To the authoress of the twenty-four years’ ‘Wanderings’ has been reserved the honour of superseding the vivacious correspondent of Alexander Pope, and of taking the first rank as the chronicler of the scenes of the Zenana. Nothing of the kind can rival the portraiture of the ‘Pilgrim.’ It is fresh, intelligent, and minutely interesting.”
