| Summary | "Rulers of India: The Earl of Mayo" by Sir William Wilson Hunter is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The work explores the life and administration of Richard Southwell Bourke, the sixth Earl of Mayo, who served as the Viceroy of India during a significant period of British rule. The book likely focuses on his political strategies, reforms, and interactions with both the Indian populace and British authorities, aiming to highlight his contributions to the administration of India. The opening of this historical account introduces the context of the book by discussing the background of political changes in India following the 1857 Mutiny, which profoundly affected British attitudes toward local rulers. It sets the stage for a detailed exploration of Mayo's administrative policies, particularly his approach to governance and relations with the native princes of India. The text outlines the transition from viewing Indian rulers as potential threats to recognizing their integral role within the British Empire, showcasing the Earl of Mayo's efforts to solidify loyalty and cooperation among the Indian states. Through this introduction, readers are prepared for an in-depth examination of Mayo's governance and its implications for British India. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
