Describes the author's round-the-world trip which began in Paris in September, 1922. "I determined to try and discover whether the influence of one race upon another could in any way be explained by the character of the relationship between them: whether the adoption of many features of Western civilisation had been an indiscriminate borrowing, or a conscious selection of elements suited to their own needs; and how these additions were being harmonised with the existing national tradition. I hoped also to understand what part in all this was being played by the schools and colleges." - from page v. Hinges open. Somewhat above-average external wear. Unmarked.
