Excerpt from Life and Work of Romesh Chunder Dutt: C. I. E
The claims of the Service to which he gave the best years of his life were in themselves exacting, and it might well have seemed that such strength as was left over from the discharge of official duties would have been wholly absorbed in such researches as those rendered necessary for the writing of the History of Civilisation in Ancient India.
