MPERIAL GAZETTEER OF INDIA
POSTSCRIPT.
Since the earlier volumes of this edition went to press
in 1885, important changes have taken place in India,
to some of which it is needful here to refer. A new
Province, larger than France, has been added to the
Indian Empire; the long contemplated railway which
will traverse inner India direct from Calcutta to Bombay,
has been commenced ; the Lusitanian schism, which
during two centuries rent the Roman Catholic Church In
India, has been closed. Less conspicuous local changes
— administrative, legislative, educational, and economic —
have occurred in every Province. Their bare enumera-
tion would involve a supplement quite beyond the scope
of this work. In the Preface to the present edition I
put forward the view that, ‘ so far from represent-
ing the “stationary stage” of civilisation, according
to a former school of English economists, India is
now one of the most rapidly progressive countries
of the earth.’ The onward movements in India,

during the brief period which has since elapsed, justify
these wordsd
In order, however, to prevent misconceptions, it is
expedient to narrate very briefly the events which render
the lengthy articles on British and Independent Burma
in volume iii., and various lesser notices throughout the
other twelve volumes dealing with the same territories,
no longer a correct representation of the actual state of
things. The aggressive attitude of the King of Upper
Burma, and his obstinate refusal to redress the wrongs
done by his servants to British subjects, compelled Lord
Dufferin at the close of 1885 to send an expeditionary
force to Mandalay. The King was dethroned, and
deported for safe custody to British India. After an
attempt to administer the country through the Central
Council of Burmese Ministers, an attempt frustrated by
the old corrupt officials in the Districts, and by the
dynastic discords of the pretenders to the throne. Upper
Burma was annexed to British India by proclamation on
the I St January 1886. In February 1886, Lord Dufferin
proceeded to Burma to organise the administration of
the new Province. The disorders incident to the dis-

this Postscript have been anticipated by a recent remarkable essay on India by Sir
Henry Sumner Maine. ‘From 1858 to 1887,’ he says, ‘India has been governed
by the Crown under the control of Parliament, and the facts and figures which I have
given seem to me to show that, taking the standards of advance which are employed
to test the progress of Western countries, there is no country in Europe which, accord-
ing to these criteria, and regard being had to the point of departure, has advanced
during the same period more rapidly and farther than British India.’ — The Reig7i of
Queen Victoria, vol. i. p. 518. (Smith, Elder, & Co., 1887.)

banding of the royal troops, and the struggles of various
party leaders and pretenders to the sovereignty, gave
rise to numerous marauding bands known as dacoits.
These plunderers were active throughout the hot months
and the malarious rainy season of 1886 ; sometimes as
petty gang-robbers, sometimes as bodies of well-armed
banditti, and in certain localities as an organised array,
operating on a scale which might almost be dignified
with the name of guerilla war.
The close of the unhealthy season, and the approach
of the cold weather of 1886-87, enabled the British
authorities to deal with these depredators. In November
1886 a force of troops and armed police was gradually
spread over Upper Burma in such numbers as to render
plunder a very perilous livelihood. The peasantry
began to array themselves more actively on the side
of order ; in many cases taking their protection into
their own hands, and slaughtering or capturing the
dacoits. The Buddhist clergy were almost from the
first on our side, and they made their influence decisively
felt as the country settled down. Meanwhile, the
annexed territories had been divided into British
Districts of more convenient size, and placed under
a carefully selected staff of civil administrators. By
the end of the cold weather of 1886-87 order was
fairly established ; and during the ensuing hot weather
(1887) the work of pacification went forward. Satis-
factory relations were also established with the adjoining
States and hill tribes to the North and East. The new
Districts are now firmly united with Lower Burma into

a single British Province under a Chief Commissioner.
So far as can be foreseen at present (August 1887),
the period of conquest in Upper Burma Is over, and
the task of consolidation is being accomplished by rapid
strides.^
While dealing with recent changes in Upper Burma,
I take the opportunity of correcting an oversight in
regard to the educational system in Lower Burma.
Sixteen years ago, when I was collecting materials
for the first edition of this work, it seemed to me a
subject of regret that the British authorities had not
availed themselves more heartily of the system of
indigenous instruction given in the monasteries and
religious houses by the Buddhist clergy. During the
interval which has since elapsed, the system of public
instruction in British Burma may almost be said to have
been reconstituted on the basis of indigenous monastic
teaching. I have mentioned the function assigned to
such native agency at page 207 of volume iii. and in
other places. But there are also passages in which I
^ In the Preface to this edition I regretted that the necessity of printing in England,
while the author was in India, unavoidably led to errors in the press. An unfortunate
example of this class occurs in my account of recent transactions in Burma at page
430 of volume vi. I had kept back the sheet in order to incorporate the facts of the
Proclamation of Annexation and of Lord Dufferin’s visit to Burma. But the new
sentences, when forwarded to England, got transposed ; and the events of January
and February 1886 are made to precede the expeditionary force and occupation of
Mandalay in November 1885. A clerical error, also due to the insertion of a new
sentence in the proof, and more likely to lead to confusion, had escaped me in the
same volume. In line 5 of footnote 2, page 230 of volume vi., for ‘ The latter'
please read ‘ The former.' Again, in lines 22 and 24 of p, 471 of volume v., the
words ‘ right ’ and ‘ left ’ have been inadvertently transposed.

omit to notice or to sufficiently emphasize the change.
I gladly therefore take this occasion to again acknow-
ledge the educational work done by the monastic
institutions and the Buddhist clergy in Burma, and
also the wise use which the English authorities in
the Province have, for years past, made of this
indigenous basis of public instruction.
The ancient schism between the Catholic Priests
and Bishops appointed under the jurisdiction of the
King of Portugal or his representative, the Archbishop
of Goa, and the Vicars- Apostolic sent to India under
the direct authority of the Pope, has been narrated in
volume vi.^ Since that volume was written, the
provisional arrangement therein mentioned has been
matured into a permanent settlement of the long-
conflicting claims. The local jurisdiction of the Arch-
bishop of Goa, as representing the King of Portugal,
has been respected. But, generally speaking, the Roman
Catholic Church in India has now been brought under
the authority of the Pope. His Holiness has issued
an instrument setting forth the new settlement of the
Indian Catholic Church ; and a hierarchy of Arch-
bishops and Bishops, under the direct regulation of
Rome, has taken the place of the Vicars and Prefects
Apostolic in partibiis infidelium.
During the printing of the fourteen volumes, much
new information has come into my possession, some-

times too late to be used. Thus, while I correctly state^
that the style of ‘ the Governor-General-in-Council ’ was
first authorized by the statute of 33 Geo. III., I else-
where mention, on the authority of an official Report
on the Old Records of the India Office, that the title
of Governor-General had occurred incidentally a century
before.^ A personal examination of the original manu-
scripts has since convinced me that this is erroneous ;
and that the official reporter probably misread the
title of ‘ Captain-General ’ for ‘ Governor-General.’ I
am indebted to Colonel Yule, C.B., for materials, also
derived from the India Office MSS., which throw
grave doubts on the popular derivation of Chanak (or
AchanaJc), the native name for Barrackpur, from its
supposed founder. Job Charnock. The name seems
to have existed before that worthy could have given it
his patronymic.
For these and other deficiencies I respectfully plead
the necessity imposed upon me to finish the undertak-
ing within stringent limits as to time. The present
fourteen volumes endeavour to truthfully condense the
data which I have been able, during sixteen years, to
collect concerning an Empire nearly equal in size to all
Europe, less Russia. They were intended to subserve
the purposes of administration, and the Government
wisely declined to permit of leisure for literary complete-
ness, at the cost of delays which would have impaired
the practical utility of the work. Every year adds new

stores to our information regarding India; and each
decennial Census enables the economist and the admini-
strator to handle Indian problems with a surer grasp.
It may perhaps be my privilege, at some future time, to
bring out a further edition of these volumes, with ampler
knowledge and clearer lights. If this be not granted, I
leave wdth confidence to the servants of the Crown in
India who come after me, the task of perfecting the
work which I have begun.
In conclusion, I wish to express my obligations to Mr.
J. S. Cotton, late Fellow of Queen’s College, Oxford,
and Mr. H. Morse Stephens, B.A. of Balliol College,
for the Index which forms this volume. That Index
is a careful expansion of the one to the first edition.
It brings to a point, and renders available at a glance,
the masses of local information collected throughout the
250 Districts of India during the past sixteen years.
Its plan, general outline, and major headings, are
necessarily my own : but to Mr. Cotton and Mr.
Stephens belongs the merit of its execution.

THE ANNALS OF RURAL BENGAL.
Fifth Edition, i6s.
‘ One of the most important as well as most interesting works which the records
of Indian literature can show. . . . Yellow-stained volumes from each District
Treasury in Bengal, family archives from the stores of Rajas, local information
collected by Pandits specially employed for the purpose, folk-lore supplied by
the laborious inquisition of native gentlemen, manuscripts in London, Calcutta,
and Bengal, — have all been laid under contribution ; and, as the initial result, we
have the first volume of what promises to be a delightful and valuable history.’ —
\Vestt7iimter Rei'iew.
‘ It is hard to over-estimate the importance of a work whose author succeeds in
fascinating us with a subject so generally regarded as unattractive, and who,
on questions of grave importance to the future destiny of India, gives the results
of wide research and exceptional opportunities of personal study, in a bright,
lucid, forcible narrative, rising on occasion to eloquence.’ — Times.
‘ Mr. Hunter, in a word, has applied the philosophic method of writing history
to a new field. . . . The grace, and ease, and steady flow of the writing almost
made us forget, when reading, the surpassing severity and value of the author’s
labours.’ — Fortnightly Reviesv.
‘ A work of the greatest talent, and one which will make an epoch in Indian
literature. The facts are set forth with the scrupulous exactness of an honest and
impartial judge, the scientific details are clothed in a dress at once clear and
picturesque.’ — Revue Bibliographique Universelle.

‘ The picture presented to us of the late Lord Mayo is a fair and noble one,

‘ This masterly work has two great recommendations : it is the vividly and
faithfully told narrative of the lile of a man ; and it contains a lucid and
comprehensive history of recent administration in India.’ — The World.
‘ It is long since we have come across a more admirable specimen of
biographical literature. . . . Nothing could exceed the completeness with which
the biographer has told the story of a noble life and a great career.’ — The Hour.
‘The story told in Dr. Hunter’s book is full of the deepest mterest. ... A
permanent and very valuable addition to the standard literature of India.’ —
Calcutta Quarterly Review.
‘ It is simply impossible that the story of this truly great and noble man’s career
could have been told more simply or rnore impressively. . . . The second volume
constitutes a masterly and a complete account of the progress of legislation,
administration, and reform in India during the last five years.’ — Home News.
‘ In no other book with which we are acquainted can so comprehensive a sketch
of the machinery of the Indian Government, and of the history of the great
Departments which compose it, be found.’ — Calcutta Englishman.

‘ The mature and laborious work of a man who has devoted the whole power
of his mind, first to the practical duties of his profession as an Indian civilian,
and next to the study of all that relates to or can illustrate it. As long as
Indian civilians write books like this — as long as they interest themselves so
passionately in their work, and feel so keenly its connection with nearly every
subject which can occupy serious thought — the English rule will not only last,
but will prosper, and make its subjects prosper too. ’ — Pall Mall Gazette.
‘A model of what official research and scholarly zeal ought to do. Mr.
Hunter’s forcible and excellent literary style is a gift of the utmost importance,
and makes his work as fascinating as it is full and laborious. A book of striking
grasp, interest, and completeness.’ — Fortnightly Revieio.
‘ It is difficult to know whether the book is most praiseworthy for its literary
style, its wide grasp of facts, or its humane zeal.’ — Westminster Revieio.
‘ More complete, more full of deep research, and more interesting than his first
[work], excellent as that was. The present volumes lead us closely among the
millions who form the Indian subjects of the Queen ; teach us what they are in
social, religious, and industrial aspects ; make us acquainted with their ancient
and modern history ; and show us what waves of vicissitude have passed over
them in faith and in administration, from the earliest period to which inves-
tigation can extend.’ — Colonel Meadows Taylor in ‘ Ocean Highways.'
‘ A great subject worthily handled. He writes with great knowledge, great
sympathy with the Indian people, a keen and quick appreciation of all that is
striking and romantic in their history and character, and with a flowing and
picturesque style, which carries the reader lightly over ground which, in less
skilful hands, might seem tedious beyond endurance.’ — Saturday Review.

‘ Mr. Hunter has prefixed to the body of his work a Dissertation which it is
within our competence to appreciate, and which we unhesitatingly pronounce to
contain one of the most important generalizations from a series of apparently
isolated facts ever contributed to Indian histor}’. ... It is between these [non-
Aryan] masses and the British Government that Mr. Hunter hopes by his book to
establish a lasting link ; and whatever the result of his linguistic labours, in this
one labour of mercy he has, we believe, succeeded. Non-Ar)-ans will not again
be shot down on the faith of statements from Hindu settlers, who first seize
their lands, and then bind them down, under the Indian law of debt, into a
serfdom little removed from slaver)".’ — Spectator.
‘ The political value of Mr. Hunter’s new book is this, that he has put before
the public, official and non-official, such a view of the character and capacities
of the non-Aryan tribes, and of our gross mismanagement of them in the past,
that no one, whether the Government or the Christian Church, will dare to
withhold from them the civilisation which will convert at least twelve millions
of frank, truthful, industrious races into the most loyal of our subjects.’ — Frietid
of I ttdia.
‘ The primitive non-Ar)-an population of India has seldom been the subject
of European research. The ignorance of their habits and views inevitably brings
forth mistakes in dealing with them, and the author traces their chronic hostility
to the British power in a large measure to this source. He discloses the means
for putting an end to this unhappy state of things, and for utilizing the tribes as
soldiers and reclaimers of the soil. . . . Besides this very practical aim, Mr.
Hunter’s Dictionary will bring the important ethnological questions which he
has propounded in his Dissertation nearer to a definite solution.’ — Literarisches
Ccntralblatt.
‘ It is a singular good fortune for the aboriginal tribes of India to have drifted
into the favour of so brilliant a writer and so accomplished a scholar. Their
connection with Mr. Hunter was one of those accidents in history which are the
mother of great events. ’ — Hindu Patriot.

making the dry bones of statistics live. But they also contain matter which may

THE IMPERIAL GAZETTEER OF INDIA.
OPINIONS OF THE PRESS ON THE FIRST EDITION.
‘ The Imperial Gazetteer will be the fruit and condensation of a series of Statis-
tical Surveys of each of the Administrative or Political Divisions of India, specially
and minutely compiled within moderate limits of time.’ — Despatch from the
Secretary of State to the Government of India, dated 2Znd February 1877.
‘ A great work has been unostentatiously carried on for the last twelve years in
India, the importance of which it is impossible to exaggerate, and the results of
which are now, in a carefully digested form, presented to the public. This is
nothing less than a complete Statistical Survey of the entire British Empire
in Hindustan, which Dr. Hunter has condensed into the practical form of an
Imperial Gazetteer of India. . . . The article India, in Volume IV., is the
touchstone of the work, and proves clearly enough the sterling metal of which
it is wrought. It represents the essence of the 100 volumes which contain the
results of the Statistical Survey conducted by Dr. Hunter throughout each of
the 240 Districts of India. It is, moreover, the only attempt that has ever been
made to show how the Indian people have been built up, and the evidence from
the original materials has been for the first time sifted and examined by the light
6

of the local researches in which the author was for so long engaged. ... In
treating of ancient India, the author has made no use of Mill’s work, but has
written the history afresh from original translations of the Sanskrit literature of
the period. The ' story of medizeval India could scarcely be told without the
aid of Elphinstone’s well-known work, but Dr. Hunter has gone back in every
case to the original sources, from Elphinstone to Ferishta, and from him to the
Arab geographers and Persian historians contained in Sir Henry Elliot’s nine
volumes on the same subject. In the accounts both of ancient and mediaeval
India, use has been made of the latest discoveries of the Archaeological Survey,
which is still being carried on. The great feature of this remarkable article,
and that in which its chief usefulness consists, is, perhaps, the constructive
account of the Indian people, and the synthesis of Hinduism from the actually
existing facts, as revealed by Dr. Hunter’s survey and by the first Indian census.’
— The Times (first notice. May 26, 1881).
‘ The publication of the Imperial Gazetteer of India marks the completion of
the largest national enterprise in statistics which has ever been undertaken. This
gigantic work has been carried out under the uninterrupted direction of Dr.
Hunter, its original designer, from the initial stage of local inquiry in each of the
240 Districts of India to the final arrangement of the results in an alphabetical
form. . . . The great value of this work is not only that it gives for the first time
a complete account of India, and places in a clear light before our eyes the
political, social, and physical condition of millions of our fellow-subjects, of
whom before we had no accurate conception ; but that it also breaks the long
spell of disappointment and failure, which has hitherto hung over the efforts of
the Indian Government towards an elucidation of the country it governs.
Hitherto no one has believed in Indian statistics. Every official statement made
on any Indian subject has been contradicted point-blank. . . . The volumes
supply, for the first time, materials by means of which British statesmen at home,
and the British public at large, can criticise the actions of our Proconsuls in the
East. Both Englishmen and native Indians will be thankful for a work, the
accuracy, fulness of detail, completeness of information, and masterly arrange-
ment of which constitute it a real and invaluable help to all who do honest work
in India, and to all who honestly judge of Indian work at home. ... It is one
of the grandest works of administrative statistics which have ever been issued by
any nation, and should earn for its author and designer the gratitude of every
one who has the welfare and good government of our Indian Empire at heart.’
— The Times (second notice).
‘ The .Statistical Survey of India marks an epoch in the approximation of Indian
rule to our English ideas of good government, and forms the necessary comple-
ment to the transfer of India from a Commercial Company to the direct admini-
stration of the Crown. That transfer placed the authority over the Indian
Government in the hands of the Imperial Parliament, but it supplied no data by
which the people of England, through their constitutional representatives, could
safely wield their newly acquired authority. . . . Of the obstructions and difficulties
which such a work was sure to encounter. Dr. Hunter says not a word. . . .
This masterful silence as to difficulties thrust on one side, obstacles beaten down,
unjust jealousies and just susceptibilities conciliated, and individual wills con-
trolled, is the finest characteristic of the body of Englishmen who administer
India ; and is a distinctive trait of our countrymen, wherever they are called upon
to rule in the colonies and outlying dependencies which form the mighty
aggregate of the wide-scattered British Empire. . . . No nation has ever
attempted so comprehensive, so detailed, and so stupendous a statistical enterprise,
and the whole has been planned and executed with a smoothness and a certainty
which are truly marvellous.’ — The Athemeum.
‘ England has brought India for the first time under one empire ; and Mr.
Hunter, also for the first time, has exhibited before us on a panoramic scale the
vastness of our responsibility, and has afforded us the means of performing our
trust under the guidance of full knowledge.’ — The Pall Mall Gazette.
‘ The Imperial Gazetteer is the crowning work w’hich brings the results of the
great Statistical Survey within reach of the general public. It represents twelve
years of incessant labour, demanding many high qualities for its efficient execu-
tion, and natural gifts such as are rarely combined in one man. Learning,
experience, and scholarly research were no less essential than habits of accurate

thought, administrative talent, and orderly, methodical arrangement. Above all,
imagination was needed — that quality without which work cannot be endued
with life and movement, but remains dead, a mere receptacle of lifeless facts. It
is to the rare combination of literary skill and the imaginative faculty, with the
qualifications of an able and energetic administrator, that we owe the completion
of this great and difficult task. It is no ordinary service that Dr. Hunter has
done to India and to England ; and, for his hard and admirably performed
achievement, he has earned the gratitude of his countrymen.’ — Chmettis R.
Markham in the ‘ Academy'
‘ A model of combined lucidity, conciseness, and comprehensiveness. . . .
Emphatically a great work — great in its magnitude, and still greater in the
beneficial results it is calculated to produce.’ — The Economist.
‘ The Imperial Gazetteer of India, which, without exaggeration, may be called
a magnificent work, alike in its conception and execution, will go far to supply
the present and future guardians of our great dependency with the accurate and
systematized knowledge of the countries and peoples under their rule, without
which the highest political ability and the veiy best intentions are condemned to
work in the dark. If Dr. Hunter had no other claim — and he has many — to the
gratitude of all interested in the welfare of the inhabitants of India, and the
efficiency of the machine of government on which much of their happiness and
prosperity depends, this splendid memorial of his ability, industry, and persever-
ance would have been sufficient to give him a place among those who have worthily
performed great and useful tasks.’ — The Statist.
‘ Hitherto the cardinal defect in our administration of India, keenly felt and
bitterly deplored by all earnest men in the countiy, has been lack of adequate
continuous trustworthy information. It is clearly not too much to say of Dr.
Hunter’s magnum opus, that it has changed all that ; the system and method of
Indian administration take a new departure from the date of its publication. . . .
No one undertaking that we have yet accomplished in India, or for India, has
promised such far-reaching benefits. Dr. Hunter, handing over to a successor the
easy task of keeping his work serviceable and in good repair, will doubtless
receive, from the Government which he has served so well, promotion commen-
surate with the importance of his labours ; but he will have the far higher
satisfaction of feeling that in the Imperial Gazetteer he has left a monument of
his ability and industry more lasting than brass.’ — Alletis hidian Mail.
‘ Between 1769 and 1855, the East India Company set on foot many attempts
towards the production of a comprehensive description of its possessions. The
only result was a storehouse of important materials in a fragmentary state. With
the transference of the government to the Crown in 1858, the need of information
became more and more urgently felt. The half-personal, half-traditional know-
ledge possessed by the Company’s officers disclosed many deficiencies from its
isolated character ; while they also held far too lightly the EnglL^h responsibility
of governing in a constitutional manner the subjugated States. Lord Mayo, as
Viceroy, appointed Dr. Hunter to the head of the Indian Statistical Department,
and entrusted to him the descriptive survey of this great country inhabited by 240
millions of men. ... In nine volumes he presents an exposition of the Indian
Empire. The Imperial Gazetteer of India is an example of clearness and com-
prehensiveness with the concise treatment of all the essential features of a countiy.
Although alphabetically arranged, the Gazetteer is no bare surv'ey of the matters
dealt with. It sets forth the fniits of the author’s personal and long-protracted
researches, and forms a monument of Dr. Hunter’s knowledge of the topography,
agriculture, administration, and health-aspects of the whole Empire of India.’ —

A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE INDIAN PEOPLE.
This Edition incorporates the suggestions received by the author from Directors
of Public Instruction and other Educational authorities in India ; its statistics are
brought down to the last Census ; and its narrative, to the year 1884. The work
has received the emphatic approval of the organ of the English School Boards,
and is largely employed for educational purposes in Europe and America.
‘ Within the compass of some 250 pages we know of no history of the people
of India so concise, so interesting, and so useful for educational purposes as this.’
— The School Board Chronicle (London).
‘ “ A Brief History of the Indian People,” by W. W. Hunter, presents a sort of
bird’s-eye view both of India and of its people from the earliest dawn of historical
records. Although designed as a popular handbook, the little volume is a work
of authority and of original value.’ — The Daily News (London).
‘ Dr. Hunter may be said to have presented a compact epitome of the results
of his researches into the early history of India ; a subject upon which his
knowledge is at once exceptionally wide and exceedingly thorough. . . . The
book is excellently adapted, either as an introduction to more extended studies on
the subject, or to give a respectable measure of general knowledge to people who
have not the time or opportunity to acquire more.’ — The Scotsman (Edinburgh).
‘ Dr. Hunter’s history, if brief, is comprehensive. It is a storehouse of facts
marshalled in a masterly style ; and presented, as history should be, without the
slightest suspicion of prejudice or suggestion of partisanship. Dr. Hunter
observes a style of severe simplicity, which is the secret of an impressive presenta-
tion of details.’ — The Daily Reviesu (Edinburgh).
‘ We part from Mr. Hunter with much respect for the care he has taken in
writing this small manual. We consider it to be by far the best manual of
Indian History that has hitherto been published, and quite equal to any of the
Historical Series for Schools, edited by Dr. Freeman. We trust that it will soon
be read in all the schools in this Presidency.’ — The Times of India.
Extract from a criticism by Edward Giles, Esq., Inspector of Schools,
Northern Division, Bombay Presidency : — ‘ My knowledge of Schools in this
country has led me to the conclusion, that the experience of the students of history
is confined to the acquisition of masses of statistics, names and dates, learnt
without intelligence. What we require is a book wdiich shall be accurate as to
facts, but not overloaded with them ; written in a style which shall interest,
attract, and guide uncultivated readers ; and short, because it must be sold at a
reasonable price. These conditions have never, in my opinion, been realized
previous to the introduction of this book.’
‘The publication of the Hon. W. W. Flunter’s School History of India is an
event in literary history.’ — Reis Rayyet (Calcutta).
‘ We have not come across a single work on Indian History which we have
read with greater pleasure and greater pride. As a historian. Dr. Hunter has
done full justice to the people of India. He has succeeded in writing a history
of India, not only in such a way that it will be read, but also in a way which we
hope will lead young Englishmen and young natives of India to think more
kindly of each other. The Calcutta University has done wisely in prescribing
this brief history as a text-book for the Entrance Examination.’ — The Hindoo
Patriot (Calcutta).
