“From the beginning of its history all the Makers of Bombay were proud of it, and looked forward, no doubt, with high hopes to its future destiny.” James Douglas was a British civil servant in Bombay, and his history emphasizes the role of the British in the city’s affairs and development. He originally wrote the essays that make up this book for publication in Indian newspapers and journals, such as The Bombay Gazette and The Times of India. Richly illustrated with numerous photogravure plates, in-text wood-engravings, and two folding maps.
