Im sure that many here will be interested in this book- any way that we can get a few additional copies (as long as we are not violating any copyright issues) made and distributed to those interested - for a fee of course.

Dear Ashar
What a great possession. I wil keep my eyes open for a copy.
Just a small correction please. The title for Prince of Wales was and is HRH 'His Royal Highness' and not HEH.
HEH 'His Exalted Highness' as you know yourself was reserved only for the Nizam of Hydrabad bacause he was too powerful at that time and did not agree to a mere HH 'His Highness' which was given to almost all the Maharajas.
HM 'His or Her Majesty' followed by RE 'Rex Emperato' or 'Regina Empatrix' was only for the King / Queen of England. As the sun finally set on the British Empire all kinds of Kings and Queens have added HM.
By the way I have an old Shikar book called " Shikar and some useful notes thereon" by Khan Saheb of Tonk. It has several old photos but the original print quality is poor. The original photos must be worth their weight in gold. I have checked with some of the descendants of the main family but nobody seems to know where the photos went.
Best wishes and keep posting

What I can do is get a photocopy of the photocopy which my friend has.Because if I try to photocopy this book, I am sure the binding will come apart.Just let me know if that would help
