Few people, either in England or in India, take any real interest in Indian history. Englishmen are repelled by the remoteness and strangeness of the theme, and the vast majority of Indians, up to very recent times, have regarded the subject with indifference. The author of this book feels that the Indian writers err in the other direction. From a mistaken sense of patriotism, they generally consider it their duty to praise their country at all costs, and in so doing, invariably defeat their own ends. The studies which are here offered to the public do not form in any way a continuous series. He has, however, attempted to give the reader a glimpse of India in nearly every epoch of her history by taking a leading figure of the period and attempting an estimate of his achievements. It is hoped that these brief studies will serve to stimulate the reader to a deeper study of a fascinating and neglected subject, of vital importance to all who are concerned with the oldest and noblest appanage of the crown. The author has preserved the seven illustrations and a map from oblivion, which he considers his duty to make the discourse an interesting one for all.

Hugh George Rawlinson was a British academic and writer. He was a professor of English literature in The Deccan College, Poona. Earlier, he was appointed as a professor on Emmanuel College, Cambridge. He was the author of ‘Bactria: The History of a Forgotten Empire’, Indian Historical Studies (1913), and Intercourse between India and the Western World, from the earliest times to the Fall of Rome (1916).
