Burma

Rangoon: American Baptist Mission Press, 1927. First Edition (presumed; no prior editions or printings cited). 16mo in grey and black pictorial wraps; 68 pages: illustrations, maps; sewn Near fine with slight crease to bottom right edge and slightest sunning to spine. Pamphlet.

This uncommon (only one copy found on Worldcat) 1927 travel guide to Burma is composed in an effusive and awe-struck style, each entry following the traveler's path as they move through different cities, waterways and railways. English poems punctuate descriptions of the landscape, peoples and industries of 1927. An interesting glimpse into the minds of American travelers in the early 20th century. // Travel guide, Burma
