Imagine yourself transported to a land of eternal summer, to that Golden Peninsula, 'twixt Hindustan and Far Cathay, from where the early navigators brought hack such wondrous stories  of adventure. A land where nature is at her best and richest: where plants and animals, beasts and forests, birds of the air, and every living thing, seem yet inspired to a feverish desire for growth and reproduction, as though they were still in the dawn of creation......."
