The article focuses on the book "Sport and Work on the Nepal Frontier: Twelve Years' Sporting Reminiscences of an Indigo Planter," by James Inglis. Nepal, bounded on the north by the great range of the Himalayas, extends southward as far as the province Behar, a country rich in varied forms of vegetation and remarkable for the intelligence of its native inhabitants and the beauty of its forests and scenery. Their land is usually rented from the native owners, the working classes going with it and becoming the dependents of the factory. The Englishmen who control the planting and manufacture of indigo have little society except that of their native dependents.
