Synopsis

""Among Indian Rajahs and Ryots"" is a memoir written by Andrew Henderson Leith Fraser, a civil servant who spent 37 years working and playing sports in the Central Provinces and Bengal regions of India. The book offers a detailed account of Fraser's experiences living and working in India during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Fraser recounts his interactions with Indian Rajahs (kings) and Ryots (peasants), as well as his observations of Indian culture, customs, and traditions. Additionally, the book provides insight into the life of a British civil servant in India, including the challenges and rewards of the job. The memoir also includes descriptions of Fraser's love for hunting, fishing, and other outdoor activities in India. Overall, ""Among Indian Rajahs and Ryots"" provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of British colonial India, as seen through the eyes of a civil servant who spent nearly four decades living and working in the region.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
