From the Caves and Jungles of Hindostan

Philosophy & Religion Spirituality & New Age

Helena Blavatsky’s classic travel-memoir From the Caves and Jungles of Hindostan invites readers into nineteenth-century India through the eyes of the legendary occultist and co-founder of Theosophy. This 1993 Quest Books paperback, 719 pages, blends vivid jungle encounters with reflections on comparative religion, mysticism and New Age thought, making it a cornerstone text for seekers of Eastern wisdom.

This vintage copy carries gentle signs of its journeys: light scuffing to the cover, a corner bump, and a discreet personal sticker inside the front board. A minor mark touches the bottom edge of the first six leaves, yet the pages remain clean, tight and highly readable—ideal for both study and armchair adventure.

A personalised touch—likely a previous owner’s nameplate—adds character without obscuring text. Perfect for young adults, adults or collectors of Blavatskyana who appreciate a used book that feels lived-in rather than library-stiff.
