Lovely re-discovery--Account of Michael Symes to the Kingdom of Ava--1795.

I saw the original of this in the Social Science Library in the 1960s-70s, but I wasn't much interested in Burmese history at that time, too many problems in the present.

My interest now is only to write fiction--like Dalrymple's White Moghuls.
