Sources for the History of the British India

The present work is a basic source book on the history of Modern India. The object of the author in undertaking the book is two fold: in the first place, it aims at supplying a critical analysis of essential data for the study of seventeenth-century British India; and in the second place, it aims at bringing within oce purview all the materials lying scattered in various record offices in India and abroad.
Every important document has been subjected to a close and careful scrutiny, and reference have been given to printed works that throw further light on the matter. It is hoped that the book which is well documented, shall not only be welcomed by scholars and students of modern Indian history, but by the readers at large, and shall be an asset to any collection.
