Darjeeling: The Sanitarium of Bengal, and its Surroundings - Gyan Books

About The Book: Darjeeling: The Sanitarium of Bengal, and its Surroundings by R.D. O’Brien is a vivid 19th-century account of Darjeeling, highlighting its development as a health retreat for the British in colonial India. The book details the region’s stunning Himalayan landscape, temperate climate, flora and fauna, and its appeal as a sanatorium. O'Brien also explores the local culture, including the customs of indigenous communities like the Lepchas and Bhutias. Blending travel writing with colonial perspective, the work serves as both a guide and a reflection of British attitudes toward health, nature, and native peoples during the Raj era.
