x OVERLAND TO INDIA
to give a conception of Persian folk types—they have no other merit.
The six coloured pictures have been executed from photographs by the artist P. Lindroth, to whom I gave instructions regarding the colouring. All the blocks and maps were made in the Lithographic Institute of the General Staff, and do great credit to its skill.
I desire to express my most hearty thanks to all the
gentlemen I have mentioned, as well as to my father, who, though eighty-four years old and an invalid, has made a clean copy of my often nearly illegible manuscript, and to my sister Alma, who has compiled the index.
Also I wish to acknowledge here my obligations to
Sir Rennell Rodd, now Ambassador at Rome, who procured me a special permission to travel along the Seistan-Nushki Trade Route ; to E. Grant Duff, British Chargé d'Affaires, who, with his charming wife, entertained me so hospitably in their house at Teheran, and, as well as the Swedish Consul- General, A. Houtum-Schindler, gave me good advice . and assistance in various ways ; to Major Sykes, who is a great authority on Persia, for the valuable hints and advice he sent me by letter ; and to Captain Macpher-
son for his generous hospitality in Seistan. Indeed, all
the Englishmen I met on my journey to India treated me right royally, and I look back with pleasure to the days I spent with them.
The dedication is a slight mark of the gratitude I owe to Colonel Sir J. R. Dunlop Smith, private secretary to the Viceroy of India at the time of my expedition, and now political A.D.C. to the Secretary of State for India, Lord Morley of Blackburn.
SVEN HEDIN.
STOCKHOLM, October 16, 1910.
