Life of Brian Houghton Hodgson, British Resident at the Court of Nepal

Abstract

IN this charming volume Sir William Hunter has compiled a worthy memorial of one of the most famous of our Indian civilians, one of the very few who have been able to rise above the details of their daily work, and to take a real intellectual interest in the history or the science of the strange people and lands in which their life is cast.

Life of Brian Houghton Hodgson, British Resident at the Court of Nepal.

By Sir William Wilson Hunter Pp. 389, 8vo. (London: John Murray, 1896.)
