EXPLANATORY NOTE.
A copy of this specimen part of "The Cyclopedia of India" is presented to every subscriber to the work; partly to indicate the general scope and character of the undertaking and partly to afford an opportunity for the final revision of Biographies before they are included in the Cyclopedia in permanent form.
It will be seen that the Biographies have been distributed under the headings of "Official," "Professional” and "Commercial and Industrial," and in each of these sections an alphabetical arrangement has been adopted, with a few exceptions. This specimen issue only includes the small proportion of the total Biographies received which are ready for printing.
A few pages of the Historical Section are included, as also typical articles dealing with Commerce and Trade. Arrangements are now in progress for articles on many other important Indian subjects.
From the foregoing it will be seen that the Publishers are sparing no effort or expense to make the work really a Cyclopedia of India and worthy of the wide patronage which it has already received.
This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published before January 1, 1929.
This work may be in the public domain in countries and areas with longer native copyright terms that apply the rule of the shorter term to foreign works.
