The Story of Madras

The book will help the reader to realize that the City of Madras is a particularly interesting corner of the world. Madras is an historical museum, where the sightseer may spend many and many an hour-in street and in building-studying old-world exhib-its, and living for the while in the fascinating past. The story of Madras fills an absorbing page of history, and thesights of Madras are well worthy of sympathetic interest-especially on the part of those whose lines of life are cast in the historic city itself or within the historic presidency of which it is the capital.
