Speeches in England and India is a collection of speeches delivered by Richard Southwell Bourke, 6th Earl of Mayo, during his tenure as Viceroy and Governor-General of India from 1869 to 1872. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part containing speeches delivered in England before his appointment as Governor-General, and the second part containing speeches delivered in India during his tenure.The speeches cover a wide range of topics, including the administration of India, the progress of education and infrastructure, the role of the British in India, and the relationship between India and England. Bourke's speeches reflect his commitment to the development of India and his belief in the importance of British rule in the country.The book provides a valuable insight into the political and social climate of India during the late 19th century and sheds light on the attitudes and beliefs of the British ruling class towards their colonial subjects. It is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history of India and the British Empire.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
