Description
The Statistical Account of Junagadh is a detailed historical and administrative record of the Junagadh region in Kathiawar, compiled by J. W. Watson as a contribution to the broader Bombay Gazetteer project. This authoritative work provides extensive documentation of the state’s geography, demographics, economy, and governance during the colonial era.
The account covers various aspects of Junagadh including its territorial divisions, population statistics, revenue systems, and historical background. It serves as an invaluable primary source for understanding the administrative structure and socio-economic conditions of the princely state under British oversight.
Originally published as part of the official gazetteer series, this work remains an essential reference for historians, researchers, and scholars studying the history of Kathiawar, Gujarat, and the princely states of India during the nineteenth century.
