A Passage To England by Nirad Chandra Chaudhuri

At the age of fifty-seven, Mr. Chaudhuri found himself able to take the first trip of his life outside India. He had five weeks in England, at the invitation of the British Broadcasting Corporation, a week in Rome and a week in Paris. All his life Mr. Chaudhuri had soaked himself in European art and history, so though physically a stranger to Europe he was mentally among friends. He has now recounted his impressions, telling how he found in Europe neither indigestion nor disillusion, but intense delight as he realized that what he had been absorbing from books for half a century was a living reality. Mr. Chaudhuri has an unusual awareness of the English character and the English past, as well as of the English landscape.
