Overview

"It was in the year 1845 that the spirit of wandering allured me toward Ceylon: little did I imagine at that time that I should eventually become a settler." Baker eventually founded an agricultural settlement in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) and found a "love for this beautiful island which can only be equaled by my affection for Old England."
