Erstausgabe
First edition of this "highly valuable and authentic work, containing much information on the productions, climate, manufactures, as also on the manners, religion, &c. of these districts" (Lowndes). Buchanan's survey was published in the wake of Richard Wellesley's controversial conquest of Mysore, its "portrayal of Tipu Sultan as a rapacious tyrant and its inventory of Mysore's natural wealth" (ODNB) helping to vindicate Wellesley's actions. Buchanan (1762-1829) was an East India Company surgeon and botanist. He arrived in Bengal in 1794 and in 1800 was appointed by Lord Wellesley to survey the newly conquered kingdom of Mysore, "a posting which enabled him to collect a vast number of new botanical specimens" (ibid.). It has been pointed out that Buchanan's survey "played a vital pivotal role in mediating the developing conflict between the colonial administrators stationed in India and the Court of Directors in London. Up until the late eighteenth century, the Court of Directors of the EIC did not generally approve of further expansion and military conquests. Territorial administration was seen as inconsistent with the operations of a trading company and some influential directors had specifically opposed the war against Tipu Sultan. In this regard, Lord Wellesley had attempted to impress upon the British the great significance of the war against Tipu by arguing that the destruction of the Mysore regime was as important as any of the wars the British were fighting in Egypt at that time. By commissioning Francis Buchanan to survey Mysore, Lord Wellesley sought to prove to his opponents in London that Mysore was a prosperous province and worthy of conquest. Buchanan's survey reports met Wellesley's expectations. Tipu and his regime were presented in an extremely negative light" (Baber, p. 149). Although his kingdom was often at war, Tipu (1751-1799) oversaw significant improvements in industry and technology. In the 1780s, he ordered the construction of "twenty iron-smelting furnaces within the kingdom. Some of this iron would have fed arms making, which reached very high levels. The Mysore state's interest in improving manufacturing extended to clocks, paper, and glass as well as other goods" (Rössner). Lowndes II p. 300. Zaheer Baber, The Science of Empire: Scientific Knowledge, Civilization, and Colonial Rule in India, 1996; Philipp R. Rössner, ed., Economic Growth and the Origins of the Modern Political Economy: Economic reasons of state, 1500-2000, 2017. Three volumes, quarto (277 x 213 mm). Finely bound in recent half calf, gilt decoration to raised bands, red labels, sides and corners edges with paired blind fillets, Turkish pattern marbled sides. With hand-coloured folding regional map engraved by Samuel John Neele, 38 engravings (one hand-coloured), and 5 folding statistical tables. Ex-Gloucester Public Library, with their ink stamp to a number of leaves, inevitable light finger soiling and marking in places, scattered foxing, paper flaw at head of 2X2 in vol. II, yet this remains a good, well-margined set, handsomely bound.

Erstausgabe
First editions. A Journey to Madras contains "much information on the productions, climate, manufactures, as also on the manners, religion, &c. of these districts" (Lowndes). Buchanan's work was published after Lord Richard Wellesley's controversial conquest of Mysore. An Account of the Kingdom of Nepal is bound as volume four. Buchanan (1762-1829) was an East India Company surgeon and botanist. He arrived in Bengal in 1794 and was appointed by Lord Wellesley to survey the newly conquered kingdom of Mysore, "a posting which enabled him to collect a vast number of new botanical specimens" (ibid.). His survey played a pivotal role in mediating the developing conflict between the colonial administrators stationed in India and the Court of Directors in London. "Up until the late eighteenth century, the Court of Directors of the EIC did not generally approve of further expansion and military conquests. Territorial administration was seen as inconsistent with the operations of a trading company and some influential directors had specifically opposed the war against Tipu Sultan. In this regard, Lord Wellesley had attempted to impress upon the British the great significance of the war against Tipu by arguing that the destruction of the Mysore regime was as important as any of the wars the British were fighting in Egypt at that time.

In the 1780s he ordered the construction of "twenty iron-smelting furnaces within the kingdom. Some of this iron would have fed arms making, which reached very high levels. The Mysore state's interest in improving manufacturing extended to clocks, paper, and glass as well as other goods" (Rössner, p. 199). The other work included in this set, An Account of the Kingdom of Nepal, is "one of the most complete historical works of the country" (Lecomte-Tilouine, p. 46). Buchanan visited the Teshoo Lama in 1774 and Bhutan in 1776-7, and he stayed in Kathmandu from 1802-3. Access to most of Nepal was prohibited to foreigners, and Buchanan's mission under Captain Knox was forced to leave in 1803. Buchanan gives a valuable account of various tribes, including Magars, Gurung, Newar, Murmi, Kirati, Limbu, Lepcha, and Bhotiya. He also outlines the history, geography, and government structure. Provenance: gilt stamp of the Northern Light Board to the head compartment of spines, showing a lighthouse surmounted by a banderole bearing the company motto "in salutem omnium" ("for the safety of all"). Established in 1786 with headquarters at Edinburgh, the Northern Lighthouse Board was formed to oversee the construction and operation of four lighthouses around the coastline of Scotland.
