About this book
C. Hayavando Rao’s 1915 reference book gathers brief biographies of people connected with India, built for readers seeking facts about their lives and careers. One military entry traces Major Algernon Caulfeild’s service from Afghanistan, including the fighting at Maiwand and the defence of Kandahar, to later work in Burma. Elsewhere, Kirpa Ram Misra’s profile notes his long tenure as Raigarh’s Diwan and his role in improving its administration.
