While preparing the script of both the volumes of this work the author has made an elaborate attempt to draw a sketch in a beautiful manner, keeping consistency and compactness in mind to arouse a lot of interest among the readers. It is the only comprehensive work on Ceylon yet published is the apparently exhaustive account by the late Sir Emerson. The speculation as to Sumatra, or rather the Archipelago, and Ceylon having been formerly united, and that the Island is not a dismembered part of the Peninsula of India, brought forward by the author, founded on the difference between the fauna of Ceylon and India, has been the subject of some discussion among the naturalists. The country is now known in Sinhala as ?r? La?k? and in Tamil as Ila?kai. In 1972, its formal name was changed to “Free, Sovereign and Independent Republic of Sri Lanka”. As the name Ceylon still appears in the names of a number of organisations, the Sri Lankan government announced in 2011 a plan to rename all those over which it has authority. So, both the volume of this book is immensely good to all.
