Excerpt from In Famine Land: Observations and Experiences in India, During the Great Drought of 1899-1900
It IS written, too, by one who has spent the most of his life in India, and who, in the late famine, took a humble part in trying to save life and relieve distress. Others did more, but none could have had a deeper appreciation of existing need nor a greater desire to relieve it. It is essential to a clear understanding of the calamity to know something of the history of famines in India, of the conditions under which they arise, of the causes which produce them, and of the efforts put forth by the government and by private benevolence to save and relieve the stricken people. Hence, these subjects have been included.
