Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of My Indian Career, Vol. 1 Were written by George Campbell during the last two years of a busy life; and he was engaged on them in Egypt up to three weeks before his death in February 1892. They are published as he left them, the old spelling of Indian names being retained. The memoirs gi've some idea of Campbell's diligence, his thirst for information, his grasp of great affairs, his many-sidedness, his steadfast adherence to principle, his sympathy with the oppressed and afflicted, his honesty of purpose, and his untiri'ng energy. His reforming zeal on occasions raised opponents, who afterwards recognised that Campbell's measures were generally sound and beneficial. He left a permanent mark for good on the administration of Bengal, the Central Provinces, Oude, and part of the Punjaub. But the memoirs do not fully bring out the warmth of heart, the unselfish kindness, and the thoughtfulness for others which endeared George Campbell to those who knew.
