Famines in India: Their Causes and Possible Prevention is a book written by Arthur Lukyn Williams in 1876. The book provides a detailed analysis of the causes of famines in India during the 19th century, including both natural and man-made factors. Williams argues that the primary cause of famine in India is not a lack of food, but rather a lack of access to food due to poverty and economic inequality. He also discusses the role of British colonial policies in exacerbating the problem of famine in India.The book proposes several solutions to prevent famines in India, including improving agricultural practices, building irrigation systems, and establishing a system of relief for those affected by famine. Williams also advocates for the establishment of a national famine commission to monitor and prevent future famines.Overall, Famines in India: Their Causes and Possible Prevention is a comprehensive and insightful analysis of the causes and solutions to the problem of famine in India during the 19th century. It is a valuable resource for historians, policymakers, and anyone interested in understanding the complex issues surrounding famine and food security in India.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
