A sammelband of ten pamphlets dating from the turn of the twentieth century, primarily relating to Indian administration, government, and culture.
Highlights include:
- A presentation copy of the advance publication of an article written for the Asiatic Quarterly Review, 'Distributed free by the author' Siddha Mohana Mitra (1856-1925), on communialism in India between the Hindu and Muslim populations.
- An apparently unrecorded pamphlet on the moral, religious, and secular training of juvenile delinquents at the dentation facility at Bareilly, compiled by one of the gaolers.
- The second located copy on an English translation, printed at Allahabad, of the Risala-i Haq Numa, a description of the four planes of existence, composed by Mughal prince Dara Shikoh (1615-1659).
- An unrecorded survey of the Hindu ideals of plant and animal classification, mechanics, acoustics, and physiology, by Bengali Indian humanist philosopher Sir Brajendra Nath Seal (1864-1938). (A greatly extended edition of this work was published by Longmans in 1915 under the title The positive sciences of the ancient Hindus.)
