This little book is published in the hope that it may be useful to
that hard-working body of men - the Tea-makers of Ceylon. It is a
set of general rules for their guidance with the methods of using
the various machines employed. It aims simply to be what its name
denotes, a handy book for the Tea-maker...and for everyone else who
wants to know how tea was made in the 19th century.

The publications of the Hakluyt Society (founded in 1846) made
available edited early accounts of exploration. The first series,
which ran from 1847 to 1899, consists of 100 books containing
published or previously unpublished works by authors from
Christopher Columbus to Sir Francis Drake, and covering voyages to
the New World, to China and Japan, to Russia and to Africa and
India. Shipwrecked on the Maldives in 1602-1607, Pyrard de Laval
learnt the local language and studied the culture, flora and fauna
of the islands. On his escape to Goa he continued his cultural
investigations in Portuguese India, before returning to France by
way of Saint Helena and Brazil in 1611. His book, which included
practical advice for French traders travelling to Asia and a phrase
book for visitors to the Maldives, was an immediate success. This
three-volume translation of the 1619 edition appeared in 1887-1890.
