  • George Thomas and the Frontier of the British Empire 1781-1802
    “If It Were My Way, All This Ought to Be Red”: George Thomas and the Frontier of the British Empire 1781-1802 A Senior Honors Project Presented to the Faculty of the Department of History, University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For Bachelor of History with Honors By Devon Hideo Miller 12/02/2017 Committee: Dr. Marcus Daniel, Mentor Dr. Peter H. Hoffenberg Acknowledgements To the teachers, coaches, and professors who have supported me over the course of my education. Everything I have learned in academe is the result of your endeavors and this is a debt I will never be able to repay. To my friends and family who tolerated the library hermit I became over the course of this paper. I do not know where I would be without your support. You were the spark that lit my ambition which led me down this path, and the fuel which carried me through. To my thesis committee members: Dr. Marcus Daniel and Dr. Peter H. Hoffenberg, thank you for your time, effort, patience, and expert advice, especially given the rather unconventional time-schedule of this project. Additionally, I would like to thank you for slogging through the veritable garbled tome that constituted the first draft. This is the result of your generous investment of time and effort. I would especially like to thank my Mentor Dr. Marcus Daniel. Your support has been essential, and I cannot express how grateful I am for your suggestions. i Abstract In 1805, a printer in England published a tale of imperialism, conquest and tragic loss from a memoir from Calcutta, India.

PAYNE, M.A. LATE OF THE BHOPAL STATE SERVICE With 16 full page Plates and a Map NEW YORK E. P. DUTTON AND CO. London : GEORGE ROUTLEDGE & SONS, LIMITED Preface "Wherever I go, whatever days I may number, nor time nor place can ever weaken, much less obliterate, the memory of the valley of Udaipiir." Such are the words with which Colonel James Tod closed his great work, the Annals and Antiquities of Rajasthan. Few men have ever known an eastern race as Tod knew the Rajputs. He not only knew them through and through, their manners, their their ideals traditions, their character, and ; but so great was his admiration for their many noble qualities, and so completely did he identify himself with their interests, that by the time he left India he had almost become a Rajput himself. The history of Rajputana was, therefore, a subject very to Tod's heart both dear ; and, possessing imagina- tion and descriptive power, he was able to infuse into his pages much of the charm of a romance, and, what is still more rarely to be found in historical works, a powerful human interest. His sympathy for the is in line he wrote Rajputs apparent every ; but if his enthusiasm leads him at times to over- estimate their virtues, he never seeks to palliate their faults, to which, in the main, he attributes the ruin which overtook their race.

  • The Risar District Made Significant Contribution to the Raryana Heritage
    The Risar district made significant contribution to the Raryana heritage and Banawali, Seeswal and Rakhigarhi were pre-Harappan and Harappan settlements and centres of activity during pre-historic times. The Asokan pillars at Risar and Fatehabad (originally of. Agroha or Hansi), discovery of the Kushana sculptural art and Yaudheya seal from Agroha and coins of Yaudheyas and sculptures of Pratiharas and Tomaras from Hansi and Agroha, establish that Hansi' and Agroha dominated the scene during the historical period. During the medieval period, the district rose into prominence continually. Important monuments, like forts, gates, palaces, mosques and mausoleums at Hansi, Hisar and Fatehabad show the importance , of the district during Sultanate and Mughal rule. The following pages describe the places of interest which ,are known for their antiquity or have acquired importance on account of their economic and industrial development. Banawali (Tahsil Fatehabad) The ancient mound of Banawali, pr~viouslycalled Vanawali, lies 14 ,kms, north-west of Fatehabad em tbe right bank of, the Rangoi Nata 01'1290 37' 5" north latitude and 750 ~3'6"east longitude. This proto-historic mound spread over an area of! &<}. ~s., rose to a height of about 10 metres due to .successive settlements on the earlier rubble. The archaeological excavations done here by the Department of Archaeology, Haryana have revealed a well constructed fort town of the Harappan period overlying an extensive proto-urban settlement of thepre-Harappan culture. IT the discovered ,ancient relics are pieced together, a fairly coherent picture emerges and it can be conjured up that if Kalibangan was a metropolitan town oyer the lower middle valley of the Saraswati, Banawaliwas possibly.

  • Reprint of Hisar District Gazetteer, 1883-84
    HARYANA DISTRICT GAZETTEERS ------------------- REPRINT OF HISAR DISTRICT GAZETTEER, 1883-84 GAZETTEERS ORGANISATION REVENUE DEPARTMENT HARYANA CHANDIGARH (INDIA) The Gazetteer was published in 1884 during British regime. 1st Reprint : January, 1999 © GOVERNMENT OF HARYANA Price Rs. Available from : The Controller, Printing and Stationery, Haryana, Chandigarh (India). Printed By : Controller of Printing and Stationery, Government of Haryana, Chandigarh. PREFACE TO REPRINTED EDITION The District Gazetteer is a miniature encyclopaedia and a good guide. It describes all important aspects and features of the district; historical, physical, social, economic and cultural. Officials and other persons desirous of acquainting themselves with the salient features of the district would find a study of the Gazetteer rewarding. It is of immense use for research scholars. The old gazetteers of the State published in the British regime contained very valuable information, which was not wholly re-produced in the revised volume. These gazetteers have gone out of stock and are not easily available. There is a demand for these volumes by research scholars and educationists. As such, the scheme of reprinting of old gazetteers was taken on the initiative of the Hon’ble Chief Minister of Haryana. The material available in print for the Gazetteer of this district consisted of the Settlement Reports, notes on certain points supplied by district officers and a draft Gazetteer compiled between 1870 and 1874 by Mr. F. Cunningham, Barrister-at-Law. The draft edition of this Gazetteer was revised by colonels Minchin and Mac-Mohan and Mr. Ogilvie. The gazetteer was compiled under the authority of Punjab Government. It was printed by Shri Ram Das at the Arya Press at Lahore.
