解説
Classically educated, Mark Wilks (c.1760-1831) joined the Madras army of the East India Company and would go on to serve as political resident at the court of Mysore from 1803 to 1808. He also later served as governor of Saint Helena from 1813 to 1816, during which time he witnessed the arrival of Napoleon Bonaparte. Elected to the Manx parliament in 1816, Wilks became its speaker in 1826 and was elected a fellow of the Royal Society in the same year. Drawing on state records and his own experiences, he first published this acclaimed three-volume history of the kingdom of Mysore between 1810 and 1817. Volume 2 details the first (1767-9) and second (1779-84) Anglo-Mysore wars, concluding with the death of Hyder Ali (c.1720-82) and the accession of Tipu Sultan (1750-99).
