FISHER UNWIN, LTD 1, ADELPHI TERRACE, W.C. PREFACE Great Britain's methods of rule in India are fully understood and greatly admired by the vast majority of Americans. By the latter the publication of this small volume, presenting the considered and favourable opinions of represen- tative Americans who have actual knowledge .of conditions in India, or have studied these and similar problems of government, will be welcomed as a striking confirmation of their own views. No case can gain by being overstated, and it is no small advantage that in such remarkable tributes of impartial critics to British fair dealing in India the presence of overstatement can hardly be suspected. The opinions, which have been compiled from the most disinterested sources, include those of two living ex-Presidents of the United States. CONTEXTS. PAGE THEODORE ROOSEVELT . 1 W. H.
