(Bengal).
Historical and Ecclesiastical Sketches of Bengal, from the Earliest Settlement, Until the Virtual Conquest of that Country by the English in 1757.
Publisher: [Calcutta]: [Printed at the Oriental Press], [1827 or 1831?].
224 pp. 8vo. Quarter cloth over blue paper-covered boards (hardback). Perhaps the first or the later printing, it is not possible to tell as the title page is lacking. The first 180 pages are devoted to Bengal History and the beginnings of the British rule with supporting reports, letters, and documents; the remaining forty pages are concerned primarily with Churches, the Calcuttta Missions, and various Christain groups including the Portuguese, the Greeks, and the Armenians. A scarce document, said to be rare even in 1897 (see George Smith's 'Twelve Indian Statesmen' ) two years after it was included in Quaritch's List 147 (1895) as item 311. OCLC and RLIN show two copies, one of each printing (Cornell and UCLA); the BL also has one of each. ABPC show none at auction in the last forty years. Spine sunned, boards soiled, half inch circular chip near the head of the spine, lacking the title leaf, marginal worming to inner and lower margins on about half the leaves, with some loss of paper at the inner margin on a few leaves, occasional worm lines through text affecting a few letters, two or three words lost from internal chip on E3, light foxing on the first few and small stain on the lower edge of the last few leaves, very faint marginal pencil lines on a few leaves, otherwise quite clean and still a solid copy.
