Download or read book Dupleix and Clive written by Henry Dodwell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dupleix and Clive: The Beginning of Empire The following pages are based principally upon the East India Company's records preserved under my own care at Madras, the Bengal Records preserved at the India Office, and the Orme MSS., also preserved at the India Office. I have further consulted the Admiralty and War Office papers at the Public Record Office, various MS. collections at the British Museum, with the Miscellaneous Letters Received and the Home-Miscellaneous series at the India Office, and papers lodged in the archives of the French Ministry of the Colonies and at Pondichery. I must acknowledge with great gratitude the unvarying courtesy and ready help I received from the various custodians of these papers. Perhaps M. Martineau, late Governor of the French Establishments in India, and Mr. W. Foster, C.I.E., of the India Office, will allow me thus publicly to announce my special debt to their wide knowledge and experience. I am also under great obligations to Mr. S. C. Hill, not only for numerous suggestions, indications, and references in the course of my research, but also as the editor of Bengal 1756-57, a collection of documents which I have found it impossible to supplement. Above all, I am obliged to Mr. Mark Hunter, of the Indian Educational Service, who was to have been the author of the present work. When he found his other engagements too pressing, he not only suggested my undertaking it, but also gave me with the greatest generosity his MS. collections, of which I have made extensive use. My indebtedness to printed works is too extensive to be here particularised, but is, I hope, fully indicated in my footnotes and the appended Bibliography.

This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 632 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Political History of India, From 1784 to 1823, Vol. 2 of 2 From the time that the India Company first formed factories, and carried on a commercial intercourse with the East, a century and a half elapsed before they attained political power. This great change in their condition is to be ascribed to the hostility of the French, more than to all other causes combined. The scheme of establishing an eastern empire for his nation was first formed by Dupleix, the most able and ambitions of the governors of adicherry and this plan, which he prosecuted almost to completion, comprehended, as a certain consequence, the destruction of the India Company, who, in their struggle to defeat it, Were fighting for existence: T he first great Contest between the English and French, on the coast of Coromandel, which termi usted in the complete overthrow of the latter, in volved the India Company in all the complexity of political relations with the native states, whom they had supported, while it made them just objects of firture apprehension to those whom they had opposed.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Romance of Empire: India Romance and India are inseparably associated; but to glean more than a few jewels from the inexhaustible mine at our disposal is impossible within the limits of a single volume. This is in no sense a history; rather has it been the endeavour in the following pages to touch lightly upon the more romantic events in our empire story, and to trace by a series of picturesque incidents the gradual evolution of India, from the warring and troubled condition in which it was found by the hardy merchant-adventurers of old, to its present proud position as "the brightest jewel in the Imperial Crown."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from With Clive in India, or the Beginnings of an Empire MY dear lads, - Ih the following pages I have endeavored to give you a vivid picture of the wonder ful events of the ten years, which at their commence ment saw Madras in the hands of the French Calcutta at the mercy of the Nabob of Bengal - and the Eng lish influence apparently at the point of extinction in India - and which ended in the final triumph of the English both in Bengal and Madras. There were yet great battles to be fought, great efiorts to be made, before the vast Empire of India fell altogether into British hands; but these were but the sequence of the events I have described.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Empire Story: Stories of India and the Greater Colonies Told to Children But although we are proud of our Empire it may be that some of us know little of its history. We only know it as it now is, and we forget perhaps that there was a time when it did not exist. We forget that it has grown to be great out of very small beginnings. We forget that it did not grow great all at once, but that with pluck and patience our fellow-countrymen built it up by little and by little, each leaving behind him a vaster inheritance than he found. So, 'lest we forget, ' in this book I have told a few of the most exciting and interest ing stories about the building up of this our great heritage and possession.

Download or read book A Vision of India Classic Reprint written by Sidney Low and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-21 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Vision of India The materials on which the following pages are founded were collected, for the most part, during the progress of the Prince and Princess of Wales through the Empire of India, which I was permitted to accompany as Special Correspondent of the Standard, in the autumn and winter of 1905 and the spring of the following year. Of this interesting journey much might be written from the personal, the political, and the purely pictorial side. It is not, however, with these matters that I am chiefly con cerned. I deviated rather frequently from the route of the royal travellers, since it was my object to give some general idea of the conditions of life and society prevailing in India, rather than to furnish a circumstantial record of the tour, or to describe in detail those places of historical, antiquarian, and aesthetic interest which were included in the official itinerary. It has been my aim to reproduce something of the impression which our vast and varied dominion of the East - almost a world in itself - leaves on the mind, in its splendour and its contradictions, its colour and its mystery, its wealth and poverty, its medley of classes, creeds, and peoples: to hint at a few of the absorbing problems suggested by the contemplation of this strange and fascinating amalgam. I hope that my survey, partial and incomplete as it may be, will not mislead those who know India only from hearsay and.
