A History of the Mahrattas v1.c9.136

v1.c9.136

5th. A history of Beejapoor, written by Syud Moideen Peerzadúh, suggested by numerous inquiries put to him by English officers, who have been much in the habit of visiting Beejapoor since the last Mahratta war. It was finished in January 1821; and although great pains have been taken, the author’s dates, by confusing the Soorsun and Heejree eras, are frequently much misplaced. His industry, however, is very commendable.
