Description

About the Book :- The author has prepared the text of this travelogue during his visit to Kashmir. He served in the Indian Civil Service in British India during which he was appointed as a first Settlement Commissioner of Kashmir. He travelled to almost every corner of the Valley and developed a close affinity with the people who figure prominently in the work. The book describes the geography, culture in brief and the hardships faced by the Kashmiri people under the rule of Dogras. Though our Settlement operations have extended to Gilgit and to Jammu territory, it has been necessary to exclude information gathered in those countries, even though connected with Kashmir. In them will be found the rates of assessment, the mode of classifying and valuing soils, and many facts bearing on the past revenue administration of Kashmir. It contains 17 beautiful plates and four maps and few illustrations to make it an interesting discourse. The book was first published in 1895 by H. Frowde in London.
