District and States Gazetteers of the Undivided Punjab: Prior to Independence (In 2 Volumes)
Synopsis
Before India's sad partition in 1947, Punjab was a vast province, covering almost the whole north western tract of the country. It comprised, besides the present day Pakistani province of Punjab, the three existing states of India, viz. the Haryana, the Punjab and the Himachal Pradesh. The present publication, on the 'Undivided Punjab', assembles (in alphabetical order) the entire array of the district and states gazetteers of the erstwhile province, published and revised during the year 1893-1933.
These Gazetteers are markedly distinct from the literature of their genre in their study. A veritable gallery of pen portraits of the districts and the former princely states, these highlight the life and culture of contemporary Punjab, scrupulously depicting its physical features, natural resources, historical, political, economical and anthropological milieus.
Reprinted for the first time in India, these Gazetteers, in four volumes bring out authoritative, original sources of information on Punjab under the British rule. This collection is invaluable to the researchers and scholars of history, geography, economics, and sociology. It should evoke adequate interest in discerning readership as well.
