Your own ably expressed opinions and that of Sir Madava Row sometime Diwan of Travancore have entirely contributed to this - I felt a pleasure in observing how noblly Mr Norton retracted his first opinion. / Our Courts are upon the whole working well and the general administration of the country is steady and progressive."

While primarily focused on British India the Journal connects seemingly disparate places and events from Cape Good Hope to Nagasaki and beyond and presents it for a contemporary British audience. The growth of American commerce in China in 1827 the news of the day from Bombay in 1829 Chinese musical instruments debates of the day dealing with the East India company a mission to Siam in 1822 an essay on the relative value of East and West Indies possessions early translations of Persian and Sanskrit poetry are but a few of the events chronicled. A must for all historians of 19th century Asia. Black, Parbury, & Allen hardcover

1905rif. 21845E & FN Spon 1905. Folio Second and Best Edition with 5 very large folding coloured maps 5 large folding plans 40 photographic plates on 20 and164 illustrations a number full-page in the text half-title very lightly spotted some very light and occasional marginal spotting to text; original black cloth upper board blocked and lettered in blind gilt back very neatly rebacked in cloth to style small faded patch on upper board else a very good bright clean copy. With 4pp of illustrated industrial advertisements at end. Greatly expanded and updated version of the first edition 'Irrigation Works in India and Egypt' of 1893. All unsold copies were destroyed by fire at the publishers and it was consequently unavailable by December 1903. The original book also included descriptions of the Irrigation Works of Egypt; these are almost entirely omitted here since Works in India had increased substantially and required greater coverage. A very good clean copy of the standard reference of the period. VERY SCARCE ESPECIALLY IN THIS CONDITION. E & FN Spon, hardcover
1962rif. 16434Indian Studies Past & Present Calcutta 1962. 4to. with diagrams in the text; original boards covers lightly age-marked else a good clean copy in unclipped dustwrapper the latter lightly frayed and creased at edges. Buhler's classic study was first published in the German language in 1898; the first English translation prepared by Fleet appeared in 1904 as an appendix in 'Indian Antiquary'. There the situation rested for over fifty years until the work was reissued in 'Indian Studies' in 1959 when for the first time the separately printed portfolio of plates and transliteration tables appeared with English captions. This edition was rapidly exhausted and thus the present reissue was produced. This reissue provides a verbatim reproduction of the 1959 edition together with Max-Muller's Obituary Note on Buhler originally published in the Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society in 1898 and Fleet's Introductory Notes to the text as published in 1904 Sadly the rare separate portfolio is not present with this copy which is quite sufficiently elusive in its own right.

1752Due fogli uniti a formarne uno di circa cm 56 x 106 (cm 50 x 105 circa al'immagine). Alone al margine destro, e strappo al margine sinistro, fermato con carta adesiva da restauro. Piccole aperture in corrispondenza di alcune delle piegature ai margini. Jean-Baptiste Bourguignon d'Anville (Parigi, 1697 - 1782) è stato un geografo e cartografo francese. Le carte del d'Anville sono molto moderne per la loro chiarezza e semplicità.
