"There can be no hesitation in saying that the plan and execution of this Hand-book are equally excellent; that it is the most complete and accurate vademecum which has yet appeared, and cannot fail to be both interesting and useful to all those whom business or pleasure may send to India."—Friend of India, published at Serampore.

"This, for what it professes to do, is truly an excellent book. As is stated in the preface, it contains at one view a very complete outline of everything relating to India which may be sought to be known; and such pains have been taken to give the information, in a form as clear as it is ample, that we might say it was altogether a history as well as a Hand-book."—Literary Gazette.
