In the Land of Pagodas (Classic Reprint) by Robert B. Thurber PDF Summary

Book Description: Excerpt from In the Land of Pagodas A little party of eager missionaries, we lined the rail of the Lunka as she plowed her way through the yellow waters of the Gulf of Martaban. Beckoned to the Orient to answer insistent calls from newly opened fields, we were at last on the very threshold of the "silken East." Home ties had been strained, and were beginning to lose their pull, while our eyes were longing to catch the first glimpse of the land of our adoption. The view was not assuring - as to scenery. Our expectant gaze met low mud banks rising out of the delta flood, a closer look descrying them fringed with palm trees, whose spindling trunks crisscrossed on the horizon line and lifted wavy tufts into the shimmering heat waves of the late afternoon. Our steamer slowly swung in a gigantic arc up toward a broad opening in the interminable flats. The sea-gulls, welcomers to every coast, wheeled and screamed about our heads.
