Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Selections From the Minutes and Other Official Writings of the Honourable Mountstuart Elphinstone, Governor of Bombay
Some years ago, when I was employed in looking over the valuable records in the Bombay Secretariat, the idea struck me that a compilation of the official writings Of Mountstuart Elphinstone would prove of use, not only to those actively engaged in the administration of India, but also to the daily widening circle of men who take an interest in Indian questions. There is hardly an important problem connected with the government Of India which has not been discussed by Mountstuart Elphinstone; and to the discussion Of Indian problems he brought vast experience and a liberal and highly cultivated mind.
