Excerpt from The Highlands of India Strategicaly Considered: With Special Reference to Their Colonization, as Reserve Circles, Military, Industrial, and Sanitary, With a Map, Diagrams, and Illustration, Etc The following sketch of Indian Hill Stations has no pretension to the character of an exhaustive description of the Indian Highlands; it is scarcely even a guide to "fresh fields and pastures new," as our journey takes us mostly over trodden ground. The existing Sanitaria and Hill Stations are simply regarded under their strategic aspects, and their adaptability to form sites for military or other colonies as "reserve circles," is investigated. Short descriptive sketches of the surrounding country are attempted, and historical notes on a few of the tribes inhabiting, or closely adjacent to, these sites are added, as bearing on their military aspects; but such notices are necessarily limited, as to enter fully into a description of the various ethnological groups and races of India would be simply to write its history from early ages, which is manifestly beyond the scope of this fragmentary sketch. Neither have these papers any pretension to the character of a "guide," though incidentally hints for routes may here and there be gathered from the context, and a few geological and topographical notes are interspersed, or given in the form of foot notes.
