Details: This book is an accessible translation of Sir Syed Ahmed Khan’s accounts of his travels, enriched by editorial interventions and supported by rare archival photographs. Set apart from his later endeavours like Tahzibul Akhlaq and Asar-al Sanadid, these impressions of his travels mattered to all those who knew anything about his standing in public life and his stature as an enlightened reformer in the last quarter of the nineteenth century. Even though his portrait of England is sometimes facile, these accounts open the door to new questions, particularly because this was the period when relations between Europeans and Indians were at the centre of many debates. This English translation, the first ever to be undertaken in full, makes these accounts accessible to those who have no knowledge of Urdu.
