Book Description

Excerpt from Memoirs of the Life and Writings of the Rev. Claudius Buchanan, D. D., Late Vice Provost of the College of Fort William in Bengal There is this additional reason for giving to the public some account of Dr. Buchanan, that, from the nature of the subjects to which his attention was directed, he unavoidably incurred a considerable degree of displeasure on the part of those whose Opinions or prejudices he felt it to be his duty to oppose. Itis but reasonable, therefore, that his views and motives should be fully and fairly developed, that the world may have an opportunity' of forming a just estimate of his character and labours.
