1. The Morning Post (DELHI) :—"For the book under
review we have nothing but praise. It is the work of a scholar
in love with his subject, and his research in all the by-ways of
Indian history does him great credit.
2. Dr. A.F.R Hoernle, C.I.E., LL.D. (ENGLAND) :—"I
write to congratulate you on the production of your book
'Ajmer : Historical and Descriptive.' It is replete with useful
and interesting information, and the illustrative plates give a
good idea of the fine sights of Ajmer."
3. Mrs. Sarojini Naidu :—"I think your book is most
interesting. It is of great interest to every reader who has the
"pride of country" in his veins. It is really a patriotic kind of
work to write so comprehensive, instructive and attractive a
history of a city famous and dear to every Indian, whether he
bathe spiritually in Brahma's Lotus Lake or bow his head at
the Chishti shrine."
5. The Indian Antiquary :—"The author has spared no
pains to make his book as accurate, full and reliable as it was
possible to do. The reader is sure to be amazed at the mass of
information so critically collected and so interestingly set forth."
4. The Hindustan Review (ALLAHABAD) :—"We can un-
reservedly commend it to all lovers of the picturesque iu India
and to all students of its history. The book is beautifully got-
up, embellished with 29 most excellent illustrations."
MAHARANA SANGA.
Full Cloth, gilt lettered and Frontispiece ... Rs. 2-8-0.
1. The Modern Review (CALCUTTA) says :—Mr. Sarda's
method is most up-to-date. His facts are based on contemporary
records, inscription and official chronicles. Being a gentleman of
the Rajput country and fully familiar with the living traditions
of history still current in that country and with Indo-Muham-
madan histories he occupies an unrivalled position as a Rajput
historian. His writings have the further advantage of being
products of a pen used to judicial weighing of facts. It is
really an epic booklet. Personalities vie with each other in
nobleness, valour and sense of honour. The mind becomes awe
stricken by stories which are more romantic than the greatest
romances. Their virtues thrill the heart and electrify the soul.
2. Dr. A. Vincent Smith, Litt. D. (Oxford) :—This
book on Maharana Sanga is well turned out and carefully prin-
ted. The author has used Sanskrit, Hindi and Persian mate-
rials as well as the ordinary books in Fnglish, and the book thus
possesses independent value as a work of original research.
