Publisher's Synopsis
Speeches of the Managers and Counsel V4, Part 1: In the Trial of Warren Hastings (1861) is a book written by Edward Augustus Bond. This book is a collection of speeches made by the managers and counsel during the trial of Warren Hastings, the former Governor-General of India, who was accused of corruption and abuse of power during his tenure. The speeches were made before the House of Lords in London, England, between 1788 and 1794. The book provides a detailed account of the trial and the arguments put forward by both the prosecution and the defense. It also sheds light on the political and social climate of the time, as well as the complex relationship between Britain and India.
