Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Annals of India for the Year 1848: An Outline of the Principal Events Which Have Occurred in the British Dominions in India From 1st January 1848 to the End of the Second Seikh War in March 1849; With a Prefatory Notice of the Circumstances Which Led to Our Connection With the Punjaub For many years I have had in contemplation the publication, at the commencement of each year, of a short historical outline of the events which had occurred during the preceding twelvemonth in our Eastern Dominions, in the hope that by this means somewhat more correct views might be attained of the proceedings of the British Government in India than are generally to be met with at home. The publication in 1843 of the "Narrative of the Campaigns in Affghanistan and Scinde betwixt November 1838 and November 1842," was an imperfect attempt to carry a portion of the project referred to into effect. Circumstances which have hitherto interfered with the fulfilment of the purpose adverted to, having been surmounted, the following short narrative is the result. The great proportion of the facts wrought into and embodied in the narrative have been supplied by the correspondence of the Delhi Gazette, which has been carefully abridged and arranged in order; and the writers of this very excellent journal are requested to accept of my most grateful acknowledgments for the assistance thus afforded. The language of the Gazette has on a few occasions been adopted unaltered. For the rest I have drawn, largely on the Overland Summary of the Bombay Times, - a paper chiefly circulated in Europe. I have preferred issuing my narrative promptly and without loss of time, while the interest of the subject of which it treats is fresh and new, to waiting for the appearance of official papers not likely to be published for some months to come.
