Summary

"A Collection of Kachári Folk-Tales and Rhymes" by J. D. (James Drummond) Anderson is a gathering of stories and songs from the Kachári people, meant as an addition to a book about their language that offers a window into Kachári life and customs through simple, yet meaningful tales. The book kicks off by explaining its purpose: to share stories collected during a trip through Kachári villages, as the collection hopes to spark interest in the Kachári language and the stories of Assam's hill tribes, even noting the interesting connections between the Kachári and Assamese languages for those who enjoy language study.
