Der britische Soldat Robert Percival bereiste Cylon im Jahre 1803. Der Inselstaat im Indischen Ozean, der 1972 zur Republik Sri Lanka wurde, unterlag viele Jahrhunderte verschiedenen Kolonialmächten. In der Zeit der Entstehung dieses Reiseberichtes stand das Land unter Beeiflussung von Großbritannien, den Niederlanden, Malaysia und Portugal. Er ermöglicht gerade aus dieser Perspektive einen umfassenden Gesamteindruck der Geschichte Cylons. Percival versucht, neben Beschreibungen zu Kultur- und Naturbild des Inselstaates auch die politische Situation zu erfassen und dem Leser nahezubringen. Es handelt sich hierbei um eine englischsprachige Ausgabe.
