Description
This is the second volume of Francis Buchanan’s detailed historical and geographical account of the Bihar and Patna district, recorded during 1811-12. Buchanan, a Scottish physician and naturalist, conducted an extensive survey of the region during his tenure in India, documenting the landscape, resources, and population with meticulous attention to detail.
The work serves as a valuable primary source for understanding the economic, social, and administrative conditions of Bihar during the early colonial period. It includes observations on agriculture, trade, local customs, and the physical geography of the region. Buchanan’s systematic approach to documentation makes this account an invaluable resource for historians, researchers, and scholars interested in 19th-century India, colonial administration, and the historical development of Bihar and Patna.
Published by Gyan Publishing House, this hardcover edition preserves an important historical document that provides insights into pre-industrial India and the early British colonial era.
