A Short History of Gondal. By Harikrishna L 61-Shankar Dave.

(Education Society's Press, Bombay.)—Gondal is a protected State, which is now in the hands of a Prince who has been edu- cated on the best system. This account of it is interesting. One can read between the lines that a ruler of the modern type does not find everything easy. Meanwhile we can express all good wishes for the young Thiikore 86.heb. His name is Bhagvat Sinhjee, and he has been seven years on the throne.
