Athenicum.— "Of all the summaries of Indian history published
i
this
century, there are few indeed which for fulness, accuracy, clear exposition, painstaking
research, and impartial handling of obscure and complicated themes can
compete, we think, with Mr Keene's scholarly work. . . . He has succeeded in
imparting an air of freshness and originality, by means of long, careful, and
intelligent stud}-, aided by the wealth of his official experiences and the easy
skill of one versed in the art of exposition and expression. He is at home alike
in the earlier and the later period, in the highways and the byways of Indian
history."
Tunes.— " Mr Keene has the admirable element of fairness in dealing with
the succession of great questions that pass over his pages, and he wisely devotes
a full half of his work to the present century. A fair-minded presentment of
Indian history like that contained in Mr Keene's two volumes is at this moment
peculiarly welcome."
