"The title of the book is "Poverty and Un-British rule in India", that is the present system of government is destructive and despotic to the Indians and UN-British and suicidal to Britain. On the other hand, a truly British course can and will certainly be vastly beneficent both to Britain and India.

Before dealing with the above evil qualities of the present system of government the author gives a very brief sketch of the benefits which India has derived from British connexion, and of the immense importance of India to Britain for Britain\'s own greatness and prosperity." (jacket)
