Articles of Charge of High Crimes and Misdemeanors, Against Warren Hastings, Late Governor of Bengal is a book written by Edmund Burke in 1786. It is a collection of charges against Warren Hastings, who was the Governor-General of Bengal from 1772 to 1785. The book accuses Hastings of various crimes and misdemeanors, including corruption, abuse of power, and mistreatment of Indian subjects. Burke, who was a member of the British Parliament, led the prosecution against Hastings in the impeachment trial that followed the publication of this book. The book is considered a landmark in the history of British imperialism and is a significant contribution to the development of parliamentary democracy in the United Kingdom. It remains a valuable resource for scholars and students of history, politics, and law.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
