Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from After Five Years in India: Or Life and Work in a Punjaub District During five years´ residence in India, in a secluded district of the Punjaub, of which my husband held charge as deputy-commissioner, magistrate, and collector, I had many opportunities of studying the life of the people and the methods of administration employed by the British government. On my return to England I found that comparatively speaking so little is known of that administration and of the work done in India, that I was tempted to believe I might be able to interest others in some aspects of native life and English government, which I myself had found intensely interesting. To these I have added a short account of our own personal experiences. These Indian sketches do not presume to give a full account of the multifarious and complicated system of administration in India or of the intricacies of native problems, or any solution of the many difficult questions which confront the representatives of British rule. They only strive to convey in simple language the somewhat superficial knowledge of certain branches of these subjects, gained by an Englishwoman during her stay in one small corner of an empire vast as Europe. I offer these impressions and experiences for what they are worth. They may possibly supply a want amongst readers who would shirk graver books of statistics.
