“A Monograph on Woollen Fabrics in the North-Western Provinces and Oudh”
By A[lan] W. Pim.
Published in Allahabad by the North-Western Provinces and Oudh
Government Press in 1898.
A study of the woolen fabric trades in the northern sections of British
Colonial India, with information on raw materials, spinning and warping,
weaving, felting, dyeing, and local traditions connected with these
activities. Sir Alan Pim [1871-1958] wrote a number of studies on
British Colonial agriculture and related topics, and would later
criticize the British government for not spending more on local Colonial
infrastructure in Africa to benefit the native population. This early
title is uncommon.

newer cloth spine. Ex-institutional with newer endpapers and a
blindstamp on the title page. Covers somewhat worn and soiled, 1-inch
