Reviews. 



Home News. ' ' His aim has been to give a faithful account of the Hirdu deities, 

 such as an intelligent native would himself give, and he has endeavoured, in order 

 to achieve his purpose, to keep his mind free from prejudice or theological bias. 

 To help to completeness he has included a number of drawings of the principal 

 deities, executed by native artists. The author has attempted a work of no little 

 ambition and has succeeded in his attempt, the volume being one of great interest 

 and usefulness ; and not the less so because he has strictly refrained from diluting 

 his facts with comments of his own. It has numerous illustrations." 



Guardian. " Mr. Wilkins has done his work well, with an honest desire to 

 state facts apart from all theological prepossession, and his volume is likely to be a 

 useful book of reference." 



Indian Daily News. " In Mr. Wilkins' book we have an illustrated manual, 

 the study of which will lay a solid foundation for more advanced knowledge, while 

 it will furnish those who may have the desire without having the time or oppor- 

 tunity to go further into the subject, with a really extensive stock of accurate 

 information."
