This work was originally published in 1832, but this edition is edited by William Crooke with an introduction and notes.

Lieutenant-Colonel James Tod (1782 –1835) was an English-born officer of the British East India Company and an Oriental scholar. He combined his official role and his amateur interests to create a series of works about the history and geography of India, and in particular the area then known as Rajputana that corresponds to the present-day state of Rajasthan, and which Tod referred to as Rajas'han.
