Fifteen Years In India Or Sketches Of A Soldier S Life

Excerpt from Fifteen Years in India: Or, Sketches of a Soldier's Life; Being an Attempt to Describe Persons and Things in Various Parts of Hindostan Arrowsmith's new map is now in such general circulation that it seems unnecessary to increase the expense of this work by adding a geographical sketch of India, containing the lines of march described by the author. All the principal places will be found in any of the large maps of Hindostan, by such readers as may be desirous of accompanying the writer through the different provinces he traversed. In spelling proper names of places and persons in India, more attention has been paid to the common way in which they are written by the English authorities in the country, than to any prescribed rule of orthography. As much accuracy as possible is aimed at, but it is presumed to be a matter of little consequence, whether the name of a particular province be written Guzerat or Gujrut.
