Book Description

Preface
IN this book, within a very limited space, an attempt has been made to describe the environment, race types, social and industrial life, and religious beliefs of the people of Northern India, I trust that it has been made clear that the area and population of this region are so great that in dealing with its inhabitants it has been necessary to avoid general statements as far as possible. The Punjabi stands to the Bengali much in the same relation as Scotsmen to Italians; they differ one from the other in race, character, language, and social institutions.

The scheme of the series does not allow of foot notes with references to authorities. A bibliography of the books I have found most useful has been added. I desire to express my special indebtedness to the reports of the Census of 1901, conducted under the superintendence of Mr. Risley.
