The History of Indian Literature c1.12

c1.12

“It forms a volume of more than 700 pages, and is a marvellous combination of literary condensation and research. It gives a complete account of the Indian Empire, its history, peoples, and products, and forms the worthy outcome of seventeen years of labour with exceptional opportunities for rendering that labour fruitful. Nothing could be more lucid than Sir William Hunter’s expositions of the economic and political condition of India at the present time, or more interesting than his scholarly history of the India of the past.”—*The Times.*
