About the Book:-Through this discourse, the author has made a noble attempt to make the reader acquainted with the history, beliefs, customs and manners of the Parsees, who with their commercial enterprise, formed important ties between the British and the Indians. Throughout the work the author asserts that the customs and rites of the Parsees as distinct, and that do not borrow from neither the Hindus nor the Muslims, and how their practices distinguish them from other oriental practices. Throughout the rebellion in the East the Parsees have maintained an unshaken loyalty to the British, whom they are proud to call their fellow - subjects, and while preserving their own independence of religion and customs, their chief desire is that the British rule in India should be consolidated upon a basis of strict justice and mutual interest. The Parsees are endeavouring to follow the example which the British have set them. Western civilization has had great influence on their characters, and they are now eagerly embracing the opportunities for improvement and advancement that are offered to them. The writer is conscious, however, that he has most rigidly adhered to truth, and should he has succeeded in rendering his narrative clear and intelligible, the object with which he set out will have been fully accomplished. The book was written in 1858. About the Author:-Dosabhai Framji Karaka (1829 – 1902) was an Indian newspaper editor and official, known for his history of the Parsees.
