Description
John Clark Marshman (1794-1877) was an English missionary and civil servant who developed a fascination with the history of India after his long service in the country.
Marshman emigrated with his missionary parents to India in 1799, settling at Serampore in West Bengal.
With his father he founded the first Bengali magazine in 1818, and the first English magazine in India in 1821.
After serving as a staff member at Serampore College and as the Official Bengali Translator for the Government, Marshman left India in 1855 and returned to England.
This volume, first published in 1876, contains a condensed edition of Marshman's acclaimed History of India.
He provides an overview of Indian history, providing details of the most powerful medieval kingdoms and the creation and administration of the East India Company.
This volume also provides insights into contemporary theories concerning the prehistory and creation of various Indian states.
