Hardback, [PU: Forgotten Books], Excerpt from Continental India, Vol. 1 of 2: Travelling Sketches and Historical Recollections Illustrating the Antiquity, Religion and Manners of the Hindoos, the Extent of British Conquests, and the Progress of Missionary Operations The principal parts of these volumes are the gleanings of personal travel, and the results of local observation. Where historical recollections, allusions, or narrations have been introduced, I have invariably consulted the most original and best authenticated records. The archives of the Asiatic Society; the works of Orme, Wilks, Mill, and Martin; of J ones, C olebrooke, Buchanan, and Ward; of Malcolm, Heber, and Burnes; of Sherar and Caunter; the Ayeen Akbery and Seer Mu tuckhareen; Heeren and Raynal, Stevenson and Buckingham, have furnished facts and suggested reflections which I would gratefully acknowledge. By their direction, I have, now and then, led my readers aside to scenes and transactions which I neither explored personally, or witnessed: but my local experience and observation in other and similar proceedings enabled me to judge of their propriety in description, and the justice of their animadversions. Where my observations did not correspond with theirs, I have either marked the discrepancy, or omitted their statements.
