Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The History of India: With Chapters on the Physical Geography; The Ancient and Modern Political Divisions and Places of Interest; And ´India in 1900,´ Its Peoples, Their Condition, Resources, Institutions and Forms of Imperial, Provincial, and Municipal Government 1. Extent and Boundaries. - India (excluding the province of Burma, or Burmah) may be described roughly as the country which lies between the Himalaya mountains and the sea. From Quetta in British Baluchistan, in the extreme west, to the eastern borders of Assam is a distance of about 1,800 miles. About the same distance separates Peshawar, in the north of the Panjab, from Cape Comorin at the southern extremity of the Empire. And the area included within these limits exceeds 1,587,000 square miles; and if to this be added the territories of Burma, the total extent of the Indian Empire is about 1,800,000 square miles, or nearly one-fourth of the whole of the British Empire. Its boundary on the north is the mountain-chain of the Himalayas, the highest mountains in the world. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
