| Summary | "Twenty-One Days in India, or, the Tour Of Sir Ali Baba K.C.B.; and the Teapot Series" by George R. Aberigh-Mackay is a humorous travelogue written in the late 19th century. This book provides a satirical exploration of various facets of British colonial life in India, capturing the interactions and observations of the author as he encounters numerous characters, including the Viceroy, military commanders, and local rulers. The opening of the book introduces the reader to the author's whimsical perspective on the British Viceroy, whom he describes as an extravagant figure draped in fineries, surrounded by an entourage that adds to his allure. Aberigh-Mackay humorously critiques the Viceroy's detachment from the realities of Indian life, painting a vivid picture of the grandeur and absurdity surrounding British colonial administration. The text sets the tone for the various anecdotes and insightful observations that unfold, providing readers with a glimpse into the often comical dynamics between the British rulers and the diverse Indian populace they govern.
