Excerpt from The History of the British Empire in India, Vol. 1 of 2: From the Appointment of Lord Hardinge to the Political Extinction of the East-India Company; 1844 to 1862; Forming a Sequel to Thornton's History of India Meanwhile, as that period forms a fitting com plement to Mr. Edward Thornton's history of British India, I have ventured, with the leave of Mr. Thornton's publishers, to furnish the general reader with a connected narrative of events, which a very small amount of literary cunning should suffice to render interesting in his eyes. Should the venture prove a failure, the author, not his subject nor the reader's taste, will probably be most to blame. It may even be that in trying to avoid prolixity, he has erred from over-compression; that in seeking within certain limits to render his work complete, he has crowded his page with more incidents than the reader's memory can well digest. It would certainly have cost him far less effort to spread his matter, after the diffuse fashion of the day.
