This book is a remarkable account of an English couple’s cycle tour of the Indian subcontinent in the first decade of the twentieth century. Reprinted from holdings of the National Archives of India, it recalls the Workmans’ travels from Tuticorin in then Madras presidency to Swat Valley in present-day Pakistan. It is a rich and rare record of the Indian subcontinent under British Raj and contains detailed accounts of architectural and sculptural remains of various styles over millennia of subcontinental history.

William Hunter Workman is a Fellow, at The Royal Geographical Society and Fanny Bullock Workman is a Fellow, The Royal Scottish Geographical Society.
