Reprint of the original, first published in 1873.
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
Excerpt from The Indian Travels of Apollonius of Tyana: And the Indian Embassies to Rome, From the Reign of Augustus to the Death of Justinian The several pieces, all relating to India, which make up this volume, appeared some years back in the Journals of the Asiatic Society. I cannot say that they then or ever excited the least interest, and but that there were omissions and faults in them which I wished to supply and correct, I certainly should not have thought of republishing them. I now for my own satisfaction reprint a small number of copies. With regard to the Indian Embassies I began the series in the hope that all of them would be as interesting and important as those to Augustus and Claudius; but when I found that they were only barely mentioned by historians, and the later ones so mentioned that it was scarcely possible to ascertain whether they were Ethiopian or Hindu, I was led on to enlarge my plan and to inquire into the Relations of the Roman Empire with India.
