"Emily Eden (1797-1869) was born into a prominent Whig family and grew up surrounded by an aristocratic inner circle of British social and political life. In 1835, her unmarried older brother, George, was appointed Governor-General of India. Unmarried herself, Emily was to be his consort during his six-year tenure. She travelled reluctantly, complaining bitterly and constantly about life in India. Between 1837 and 1840 Emily accompanied her brother 'up country' on a mission to forestall the perceived threat to British interests from Russia and Persia, both stealthily eyeing India and concocting plans to invade Afghanistan. This period produced a great surge in Emily's written and artistic output; her creativity sustained her throughout the whole time she was in India, and also provided her with a resource on which to draw for the rest of her life. Mary Ann Prior has re-traced Emily Eden's footsteps through the upper provinces and charts the immense changes that have taken place over the 170 years since, noting the constants - the continuing foreign military presence in an area that could be called the 'Balkans of Central Asia'. George Eden's policies contributed to the disastrous first Afghan war, a bloody clash of cultures that was to be a harbinger of future conflict still with us today. Emily's visual and written material from her sojourn abroad has been used as the linchpin on which to attach snippets of information about modern India. It also gave the author a chance to match unidentified paintings to the places where they were produced, to date undated ones, and to connect anonymous sitters with their true personalities."--Publisher's description.

Eden is the garden of happiness that humankind lost when Adam and Eve the first human couple, disobeyed the one true god, i.e., God, and ate the fruit of the forbidden tree. To this garden all humanity shall return if we accept God's love and follow God's law. It represents paradise in Abrahamic lore, which emerged over 4,000 years ago in the Middle East and has since spread to every corner of the world in three forms: Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Like the Ramayana and Mahabharata, Jewish, Christian and Islamic tales too are cultural memories and metaphors, i.e. mythologies. They seek to make life meaningful by establishing a worldview based on one God, one life, and one way of living based on God's message transmitted through many messengers. But these stories contrast Indian mythologies that are rooted in rebirth, where the world is without beginning or end, where there are infinite manifestations of the divine, both within and without, personal and impersonal, simultaneously monotheistic, polytheistic and atheistic. Eden explores the vast world of Abrahamic myths from a uniquely Indian prism, through storytelling that is intimate but not irreverent, and to introduce reader

"Up the Country" is a charming and witty travelogue written by way of Emily Eden, an outstanding English writer and sister of the Governor-General of India, Lord Auckland. The book chronicles her reviews and observations all through her travels via India, in particular in the northern regions of the usa throughout the 1830s. In "Up the Country," Emily Eden's storytelling style is marked by way of its humor, eager wit, and astute observations. She affords readers with a delightful and candid account of her interactions with an extensive range of humans, from colonial officials and Indian royalty to local residents and British expatriates. Through her enticing narrative, she gives a brilliant and insightful window into the social and political panorama of the time. While the book is lighthearted in its tone, it also delves into the complexities of British colonial rule in India, losing light at the challenges and absurdities of governance in a foreign land. Eden's work is not only a travelogue however a social statement that explores the interactions and cultural clashes between the British and the Indian populace.

This expos reveals unique and tragic events that occurred north of San Francisco Bay in Northwestern California primarily during the Nineteenth Century. It details a clash between the indigenous inhabitants of the area who had lived here for several millennia and White invaders from the eastern portions of the United States attracted by reports of placer gold deposits found in selected waterways as well as by the presence of land where flora and fauna grew in unprecedented profusion from the heavy rainfall sufficient to support great stands of Redwood forests, the tallest trees on earth. For American ranchers and farmers subject to drought in many parts of the United States, Northwestern California sounded like a Garden marred only by the presence of hundreds of thousands of Native Americans who occupied this Eden. What followed was a war of brutality in the 1800s between two races for possession of land ownership, an updated story that has never been presented in such detail before. White migrants committed ethnocide and genocide in removing the natives while founding Humboldt, Trinity, Mendocino and Klamath counties. This work takes the form of an historical novel blending fact with a modicum of fiction for readability.
