First edition of this important mid-nineteenth century work on India by the Rev. Peter Percival, a significant missionary and educational figure associated with British India and Ceylon. Derived from a series of lectures delivered at St. Augustine's Missionary College, Canterbury, the work provides a structured overview of India across multiple dimensions ? physical, social, intellectual, and moral ? reflecting the perspective of a missionary-scholar engaging with Indian society during the height of British imperial expansion. The text is particularly valuable for its insight into how India was interpreted, taught, and presented to future missionaries and clergy in Britain. It offers a revealing synthesis of observation, cultural interpretation, and religious framing, making it an important document within the intellectual history of colonial engagement with India. Illustrated with an engraved plate of Bishop's College, Calcutta, reinforcing its direct institutional connection to Anglican missionary activity in India. An attractive and increasingly desirable work within the field of colonial and missionary literature, particularly when considered alongside contemporary ecclesiastical and administrative works relating to British India. CONDITION; Original publisher's cloth, gilt. Some wear to spine ends and corners, with minor fraying at head of spine. Covers slightly rubbed. Internally clean with light spotting. A sound and attractive copy. Offered by Atlas Rare Books, specialists in rare and antiquarian books.
