This two-volume work by Alexander Rogers (1825-1911), a retired
officer of the Bombay Civil Service, first published in 1892,
describes the land revenues of the Bombay Presidency (the province
which at its greatest extent encompassed much of West and Central
India) and also gives a history of the rise and progress of the
British administration in the region. The work is organised into
eighteen sections, each bearing the name of the Collectorate
described therein. It provides an overview of the changes in land
revenue administration which culminated in the Bombay Revenue
Survey Settlements. Using government records as its sources, the
book is meticulously researched and is illustrated with tables,
charts and maps. Volume 2 provides descriptions of the land revenue
system of a further ten Collectorates (Ratnagiri, Nasik, Sholapur,
Puna, Ahmadnagar, Bijapur, Sattara, Belgam, Dharvar, Kanara), and
achieves the author's aim of providing an up-to-date survey of the
province.
