Book Description
About the Book
The book is a detailed account of the author's travels and experiences in the Chin-Lushai region of Northeast India. The book offers a comprehensive description of the geography, topography, and climate of the region, as well as the customs, traditions, and culture of the people who live there. The author provides an in-depth analysis of the various tribes that inhabit the region, including the Kukis, Lushais, and Nagas. He also describes their religious beliefs, social organization, and political systems. The book covers a range of topics, including hunting, agriculture, and the natural resources of the region. Chin-Lushai Land is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the colonial period in India and the interactions between the British and the indigenous tribes of the region.

Preface
In a campaign or expedition into a new country, it can easily be understood that the matters regarding military operations, political negotiations, or characteristics of the people concerned, which come within the personal observation of a medical officer, must, from the nature of his duties, bé of very limited extent, and that he is usually debarred, by his position, from acquiring an accurate knowledge of the undertaking as a whole. It is therefore almost entirely owing to the kindness of Colonel W. P. Symons, c.B., of the South Wales Borderers, Colonel V. W. Tregear, c.B., of the 9th Bengal Infantry, and Colonel G. J. Skinner, D.S.O., of the 3rd Bengal Infantry, who commanded the Chin Force, Lushai Force, and Northern Column of the latter respectively in the expedition of 1889-90, and who placed the information in their possession at my disposal, as well as to that of Mr. G. M. Chesney, Editor of the Allahabad Pioneer, who allowed me to search the files of his paper for former re-cords of the Chin-Lushai Country, that I am enabled to place the following volume before the public. I have also to thank Colonel R. M. Clifford, 1.S.C., Lieutenant E. W. M. Norie, Intelligence Officer, Lieutenant M. E. Wil-loughby, 2nd Bengal Laneers, and Surgeon-Captain A. G. E. Newland, of the Indian Medical Service, for generously furnish-ing me with information, etchings and photographs.
