Full orange-brown cloth boards with wrap-around decorative gilt band of flora and bird motifs at top edges, upper lettered in gilt and gilt emblem stamped at lower corner. Spine lettered in gilt. Beveled edges. Blue pasted and free endpapers. , Sir Herbert Hope Risley (1851 ? 1911) was a British ethnographer and colonial adminis…trator, a member of the Indian Civil Service who conducted extensive studies on the tribes and castes of the Bengal Presidency. He is notable for the formal identification of the centuries old established caste system of the entire Hindu population of British India in the 1901 census, of which he was in charge. As an exponent of scientific racism, he used anthropometric data to divide Indians into seven races. His initial posting was to Midnapur in Bengal as an Assistant Magistrate and Assistant District Collector. The area was inhabited in part by forest tribes. He soon took to studying them and retained an interest in the anthropology of such tribes for the remainder of his life. He also became involved in William Wilson Hunter's Statistical Survey of India, which began in 1869, and was to be printed in the first edition of The Imperial Gazetteer of India, published in 1881. Hunter personally conducted the survey of Bengal, and the anthropological, linguistic and sociological accomplishments of Risley were recognised in February 1875 when he was appointed as one of five Assistant Directors of Statistics for Hunter's Survey., Size : Quarto (280 x 225 mm), Very good example of this unique volume on India, complete with 21 plates in addition to 2 loose folding maps housed in sleeve on upper board. Accompanying this volume are 3 loose manuscript leaves describing ?an itinerary of the longest tour along the [x] border of Sikhim?? On the last page, the author makes note of what items some inhabitants (?) find desirable, including towels, tablecloths, table napkins, bedsheets, cooking things, etc. A very interesting complement to the present volume. Penciled inscription on blank, dated August 16, 1902, discusses boundary lines and other political affairs relating to India. Some wear and light soiling to boards, interior else clean and crisp.
