Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Rulers of India: Sir Thomas Munro and the British Settlement of the Madras Presidency
Great changes have taken place in Southern India during the two-thirds of a century since Munro's death. The country has been opened up by railways and telegraph wires, and the people have been modernized by schools and colleges. Almost every town which Munro visited as Collector, Colonel, and Governor has now a railway station or is within a few hours' drive of one, and each has its English school, its dis pensary or hospital, its post and telegraph office, its magistrate's court and its police station.
