DR, A, BANERJI SHASTRI,
...... The work (Marwar-ka-Itihas) is indeed well brought out, and I am sure you will be able to bring it to completion before long. Your work is a mine of information, and length and number of footnotes indicate what a variety of sources you have pressed into the service of history. ...... The present volume brings out so well the thread of political history on really authentic materials.

The Hindi History of Marwar, Vol. I, by Pandit Bisheshwar Nath Reu, is a work which appears to have involved much research, and should prove a valuable contribution to historical study.
