Book Description
Preface

About sixty years ago a young Englishman, placed by the exigencies of public service amidst strangers in an inhospitable and till then little-known clime, occupied him- self in collecting materials, which have since afforded the key to the religion of one-fifth of the human race. That Englishman was Brian Houghton Hodgson, and a brief notice of his career in India may not be out of place here.

Born at the close of the last century, he entered the Bengal Civil Service as a writer on April 30, 1818. According to the rules of the Service at the time, he had, on his arrival at Calcutta, on August following, to attend for a year the College of Fort William, and pass through the usual course of training there. His career at the College was a highly satisfactory one, and he distinguished himself greatly by his zeal, assiduity and successful study of the Persian language. On August 20, 1819, he was appointed Assistant to the Commissioner of Kumaon, which office he exchanged, on the following year, for that of Assistant to the Resident of Kathmandu.
