DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from A History of the Maratha People, Vol. 1 In the ensuing pages it will be the writer's aim to tell the story of the country known as Maharashtra. It lies on the western shore of middle India and is in shape a triangle* Its base is the sea from Daman to Karwar. The perpendicular side is formed by a line running from Daman beyond Nagpur. The hypotenuse is formed by an irregular line from beyond Nagpur to Karwar, The area of this tract is over 100, 000 square miles and its population exceeds thirty millions. The race that inhabits it varies just as Frenchmen of different provinces vary. But it has distinct characteristics, which differentiate it from other Indian races. The people of Maharashtra as a rule lack the regular features of the Northern Indian. Their tempers, too, are usually less under control than those of the dwellers in the Gangetic plain. But their courage is at least as high as that of any other Indian nation, while their exquisitely keen sense of humour, the lofty intelligence of their educated classes, their blunt speech and frank bearing rarely fail to win the love and admiration of those Englishmen whose lot it is to serve among them the Indian Government. Maharashtra has three distinct divisions. Of these, the seaboard below the Sahyadri Mountains is known as the Konkan; the tract occupied by the Sahyadris is known as the Mawal; while the wide, rolling plains to the east are known as the Desh.
