One of the most important as well as most interesting works which the records
of Indian literature can show. . . . Yellow-stained volumes from each District
Treasury in Bengal, family archives from the stores of Rajas, local information
collected by Pandits specially employed for the purpose, folk-lore supplied by
the laborious inquisition of native gentlemen, manuscripts in London, Calcutta,
and Bengal, have all been laid under contribution ; and, as the initial result, we
have the first volume of what promises to be a delightful and valuable history.’

Mr. Hunter has prefixed to the body of his work a Dissertation which it is

Aryan] masses and the British Government that Mr. Hunter hopes by his book to
establish a lasting link ; and whatever the result of his linguistic labours, in this
one labour of mercy he has, we believe, succeeded. Non-Ar)-ans will not again
be shot down on the faith of statements from Hindu settlers, who first seize
their lands, and then bind them down, under the Indian law of debt, into a
serfdom little removed from slaver)".’ Spectator.
‘ The
political value of Mr. Hunter’s new book is this, that he has put before
the public, official and non-official, such a view of the character and capacities

The primitive non-Ar)-an population of India has seldom been the subject
of European research. The ignorance of their habits and views inevitably brings

for putting an end to this unhappy state of things, and for utilizing the tribes as
soldiers and reclaimers of the soil. . Besides this very practical aim, Mr.

of the earnest and responsible duty which fate has imposed upon his country

Twenty volumes of material, collected under the most favourable auspices, are

Invaluable to the statesman, the administrator, and the historian, they are no less

making the dry bones of statistics live. But they also contain matter which may

touchstone of the work, and proves clearly enough the sterling metal of which
it is wrought. It represents the essence of the 100 volumes which contain the
results of the Statistical Survey conducted by Dr. Hunter throughout each of
the 240 Districts of India. It is, moreover, the only attempt that has ever been
made to show how the Indian people have been built up, and the evidence from
the original materials has been for the first time sifted and examined by the light
—
aid of Elphinstone’s well-known work, but Dr. Hunter has gone back in every
case to the original sources, from Elphinstone to Ferishta, and from him to the
Arab geographers and Persian historians contained in Sir Henry Elliot’s nine
volumes on the same subject. In the accounts both of ancient and mediaeval
India, use has been made of the latest discoveries of the Archaeological Survey,
which is still being carried on. The great feature of this remarkable article,
and that in which its chief usefulness consists, is, perhaps, the constructive
account of the Indian people, and the synthesis of Hinduism from the actually
existing facts, as revealed by Dr. Hunter’s survey and by the first Indian census.’
— The Times (first notice. May 26, 1881).
‘
The
publication of the Imperial Gazetteer of India marks the completion of
the largest national enterprise in statistics which has ever been undertaken. This
gigantic work has been carried out under the uninterrupted direction of Dr.
Hunter, its original designer, from the initial stage of local inquiry in each of the
240 Districts of India to the final arrangement of the results in an alphabetical
form. . . The great value of this work is not only that it gives for the first time
.
a complete account of India, and places in a clear light before our eyes the
political, social, and physical condition of millions of our fellow-subjects, of
whom before we had no accurate conception ; but that it also breaks the long
spell of disappointment and failure, which has hitherto hung over the efforts of
the Indian Government towards an elucidation of the country it governs.
Hitherto no one has believed in Indian statistics. Every official statement made
on any Indian subject has been contradicted point-blank. .The volumes
. .
supply, for the first time, materials by means of which British statesmen at home,
and the British public at large, can criticise the actions of our Proconsuls in the
East. Both Englishmen and native Indians will be thankful for a work, the
accuracy, fulness of detail, completeness of information, and masterly arrange-
ment of which constitute it a real and invaluable help to all who do honest work
in India, and to all who honestly judge of Indian work at home. ... It is one
of the grandest works of administrative statistics which have ever been issued by
any nation, and should earn for its author and designer the gratitude of every
one who has the welfare and good government of our Indian Empire at heart.’
— The Times (second notice).
‘
The .Statistical Survey of India marks an epoch in the approximation of Indian
rule to our English ideas of good government, and forms the necessary comple-
ment to the transfer of India from a Commercial Company to the direct admini-
stration of the Crown. That transfer placed the authority over the Indian
Government in the hands of the Imperial Parliament, but it supplied no data by
which the people of England, through their constitutional representatives, could
safely wield their newly acquired authority. Of the obstructions and difficulties
. . .
which such a work was sure to encounter. Dr. Hunter says not a word. . . .
This masterful silence as to difficulties thrust on one side, obstacles beaten down,
unjust jealousies and just susceptibilities conciliated, and individual wills con-
trolled, is the finest characteristic of the body of Englishmen who administer
India ; and is a distinctive trait of our countrymen, wherever they are called upon
to rule in the colonies and outlying dependencies which form the mighty
aggregate of the wide-scattered British Empire. . . No nation has ever

Hunter, also for the first time, has exhibited before us on a panoramic scale the
vastness of our responsibility, and has afforded us the means of performing our
trust under the guidance of full knowledge.’ The Pall Mall Gazette.
The Imperial Gazetteer is the crowning work w’hich brings the results of the
‘
great Statistical Survey within reach of the general public. It represents twelve
years of incessant labour, demanding many high qualities for its efficient execu-
tion, and natural gifts such as are rarely combined in one man. Learning,
experience, and scholarly research were no less essential than habits of accurate

Emphatically a great work great in its magnitude, and still greater in the
beneficial results it is calculated to produce.’ The Economist.
‘
The Imperial Gazetteer of India, which, without exaggeration, may be called
a magnificent work, alike in its conception and execution, will go far to supply
the present and future guardians of our great dependency with the accurate and
systematized knowledge of the countries and peoples under their rule, without
which the highest political ability and the veiy best intentions are condemned to
—
work in the dark. If Dr. Hunter had no other claim and he has many to the —
gratitude of all interested in the welfare of the inhabitants of India, and the
efficiency of the machine of government on which much of their happiness and
prosperity depends, this splendid memorial of his ability, industry, and persever-
ance would have been sufficient to give him a place among those who have worthily
performed great and useful tasks.’ The Statist.
‘
Hitherto the cardinal defect in our administration of India, keenly felt and
bitterly deplored by all earnest men in the countiy, has been lack of adequate
continuous trustworthy information. It is clearly not too much to say of Dr.
Hunter’s magnum opus, that it has changed all that ; the system and method of
Indian administration take a new departure from the date of its publication. . . .
No one undertaking that we have yet accomplished in India, or for India, has
promised such far-reaching benefits. Dr. Hunter, handing over to a successor the
easy task of keeping his work serviceable and in good repair, will doubtless
receive, from the Government which he has served so well, promotion commen-
surate with the importance of his labours ; but he will have the far higher
satisfaction of feeling that in the Imperial Gazetteer he has left a monument of
his ability and industry more lasting than brass.’ Alletis hidian Mail.
‘
Between 1769 and 1855, the East India Company set on foot many attempts
towards the production of a comprehensive description of its possessions. The
only result was a storehouse of important materials in a fragmentary state. With
the transference of the government to the Crown in 1858, the need of information
became more and more urgently felt. The half-personal, half-traditional know-
ledge possessed by the Company’s officers disclosed many deficiencies from its
isolated character ; while they also held far too lightly the EnglL^h responsibility
of governing in a constitutional manner the subjugated States. Lord Mayo, as
Viceroy, appointed Dr. Hunter to the head of the Indian Statistical Department,
and entrusted to him the descriptive survey of this great country inhabited by 240
millions of men. ... In nine volumes he presents an exposition of the Indian
Empire. The Imperial Gazetteer of India is an example of clearness and com-
prehensiveness with the concise treatment of all the essential features of a countiy.
Although alphabetically arranged, the Gazetteer is no bare surv'ey of the matters
dealt with. It sets forth the fniits of the author’s personal and long-protracted
researches, and forms a monument of Dr. Hunter’s knowledge of the topography,
agriculture, administration, and health-aspects of the whole Empire of India.’
Kolnische Zeitung.
This Edition incorporates the suggestions received by the author from Directors
of Public Instruction and other Educational authorities in India ; its statistics are
brought down to the last Census ; and its narrative, to the year 1884. The work
has received the emphatic approval of the organ of the English School Boards,
and is largely employed for educational purposes in Europe and America.

Within the compass of some 250 pages we know of no history of the people

‘
“ A Brief History of the Indian People,” by W. W. Hunter, presents a sort of
bird’s-eye view both of India and of its people from the earliest dawn of historical
records. Although designed as a popular handbook, the little volume is a work
of authority and of original value.’ The Daily News (London).
‘
Dr. Hunter may be said to have presented a compact epitome of the results
of his researches into the early history of India ; a subject upon which his
knowledge is at once exceptionally wide and exceedingly thorough. . . . The
book is excellently adapted, either as an introduction to more extended studies on
the subject, or to give a respectable measure of general knowledge to people who
have not the time or opportunity to acquire more.’ The Scotsman (Edinburgh).
‘
Dr. Hunter’s history, if brief, is comprehensive. It is a storehouse of facts
marshalled in a masterly style ; and presented, as history should be, without the
slightest suspicion of prejudice or suggestion of partisanship. Dr. Hunter
observes a style of severe simplicity, which is the secret of an impressive presenta-
tion of details.’ The Daily Reviesu (Edinburgh).
‘
We part from Mr. Hunter with much respect for the care he has taken in
writing this small manual. We consider it to be by far the best manual of
Indian History that has hitherto been published, and quite equal to any of the
Historical Series for Schools, edited by Dr. Freeman. We trust that it will soon
—
be read in all the schools in this Presidency.’ The Times of India.
Extract from a criticism by Edward Giles, Esq., Inspector of Schools,
Northern Division, Bombay Presidency :
—My knowledge of Schools in this
‘
country has led me to the conclusion, that the experience of the students of history
is confined to the acquisition of masses of statistics, names and dates, learnt
without intelligence. What we require is a book wdiich shall be accurate as to
facts, but not overloaded with them ; written in a style which shall interest,
attract, and guide uncultivated readers ; and short, because it must be sold at a
reasonable price. These conditions have never, in my opinion, been realized
previous to the introduction of this book.’
‘The publication of the Hon. W. W. Flunter’s School History of India is an
—
event in literary history.’ Reis Rayyet (Calcutta).
‘
We have not come across a single work on Indian History which we have
read with greater pleasure and greater pride. As a historian. Dr. Hunter has
done full justice to the people of India. He has succeeded in writing a history
of India, not only in such a way that it will be read, but also in a way which we
hope will lead young Englishmen and young natives of India to think more
kindly of each other. The Calcutta University has done wisely in prescribing
this brief history as a text-book for the Entrance Examination.’ The Hindoo
Patriot (Calcutta).
