The Administration of Warren Hastings, 1772-1785 is a historical book written by George William Forrest and originally published in 1892. The book provides a comprehensive account of the tenure of Warren Hastings, who served as the first Governor-General of India from 1772 to 1785. Forrest’s work covers a wide range of topics related to Hastings’ administration, including his policies towards the Indian states, his efforts to reform the East India Company, and his handling of the Bengal Famine of 1770. The book also delves into the controversies surrounding Hastings’ impeachment trial in 1788, which accused him of corruption and abuse of power. Forrest draws on a variety of primary sources to support his analysis, including official records, contemporary accounts, and personal correspondence. The book is written in a clear and straightforward style, making it accessible to both scholars and general readers interested in the history of British colonialism in India. Overall, The Administration of Warren Hastings, 1772-1785 is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to understand the complexities of British rule in India during the late 18th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
