The Dumb Shall Speak And The Deaf Shall Hear: Or The Ryot, The Zemindar, And The Government is a book written by Florence Nightingale in 1883. The book focuses on the social and economic conditions of India during the British colonial rule. Nightingale examines the relationship between the ryot (peasant farmer), the zemindar (landlord), and the government. She argues that the British government’s policies towards India were oppressive and exploitative, causing immense suffering for the Indian people. Nightingale also discusses the plight of women in India, particularly the practice of child marriage and the lack of education for girls. She calls for reforms in the Indian society and for the British government to take responsibility for their actions. The book is a powerful critique of colonialism and a plea for social justice in India.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
