Cutch; or, Random Sketches of Western India with Legends and Traditions by Marianna Postans (2001 Reprint, Hardcover)

A detailed reprint of Marianna Postans’ evocative 19th-century travelogue, originally published in 1839. This 2001 hardcover edition captures her vivid observations of life in the princely state of Cutch (Kutch), interwoven with local legends, customs, and colonial impressions. Richly descriptive and ethnographically valuable, the volume includes several black-and-white illustrations that enhance the narrative.
