The book was published in 1787 and is a firsthand account of Hastings' experiences and observations during his tenure in India.The book is divided into two parts. The first part provides a detailed account of the political and administrative situation in India during Hastings' time. He describes the various provinces and their rulers, the military and economic conditions, and the challenges faced by the British in maintaining their control over the region.The second part of the book is a collection of Hastings' personal correspondence, including letters to his family and friends, as well as official documents and reports. These letters provide insight into Hastings' personal life and his relationships with other key figures in India, such as the Nawab of Bengal and the Mughal Emperor.Overall, Memoirs Relative To The State Of India is an important historical document that provides valuable insights into the complex political and social landscape of India during the 18th century.
