England to Calcutta, by the Overland Route, in 1845 is a travelogue written by Frederick Walter Simms and published in 1878. The book details Simms' journey from England to India via the overland route in 1845. The overland route was a popular mode of transportation during the mid-19th century, as it allowed travelers to avoid the long sea voyage around the Cape of Good Hope. Simms' journey took him through France, Italy, Egypt, and across the Arabian Peninsula, before finally arriving in India. The book provides a detailed account of the various cities, towns, and landscapes that Simms encountered along the way, as well as his experiences with the people and cultures of each region. Simms also includes information on the history and politics of the areas he visited, as well as his observations on the social and economic conditions of the time. England to Calcutta, by the Overland Route, in 1845 offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of travel during the mid-19th century, as well as a valuable historical record of the places and people that Simms encountered on his journey.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
