CAWNPORE
By G. 0. Trevelyan
Published by Macmillan & Co.,London - 1866.
Extract : "In old times an officer appointed to Cawnpore thought himself fortunate if he could reach his station within three months from the day he left Fort William. But tow-ropes and punt-poles are now things of the past, and the traveller from Calcutta arrives at the end of his journey in little more than thirty hours."

Astonishing!

Please download them !!!

I agree with you Sonya. My library is quite well stocked with historical works, but they do not have this "Goldmiine" of information! These are absolute treasures!

Thanks Brenda...its gratifying to hear what I actually feel about these books. Can you beleive how impossibly expensive it would be to collect these first editions today. Such a miracle that we can have these digitized versions atleast.

Thanks Prince....blue blood with grace. : )

Same thing for me the more I read your articles the more I appreciate it thank you so much joe

Thanks Joe... : )
