About the Book- About the Book :- The author reveals that nearly all the ensuing sketches have already published in the Times of India and are reproduced with the kind permission of its editor, no preface is really required. Since, however, the articles on Marathi proverbs gave, when published, some offence to Deccani readers, he takes this opportunity of assuring them that the suggestion that Maharashtra means the country of the Mahars (Mahar Rashtra) was not mine at all. It may be found at the preface to Malesworth’s dictionary. He is glad, however, to state that his old and valued friend Sir Ramkrishna Bhandarkar, C.I.E., has convinced him that Malesworth’s derivation must on philological grounds be incorrect. He has rewritten the latter half of the articles; the other articles are practically unaltered. It contains collection of three stories about Tulsi tree, 12 historical and other stories and four proverbial philosophies of the Maharashtra and Gujarat region. The proverbs of Kaithawar, Deccan, Passees and Musalmans are noted in a very light and humorous way.
