\"Kanpur to Kolkata (historically Cawnpore to Calcutta, the terms used throughout this volume) is essentially a reproduction of aspects of the unpublished Report cum Diary of Major D.G. Pitcher, a judge in the Indian Civil Service\"--page 11; \"Kanpur to Kolkata is divided principally into two main segments. The first [is] the Report proper with crucial recommendations and Appendices ... The second is his copious Diary kept during the entire duration of his tour of duty\"-- page 22. Pitcher was commissioned by the British Government of India to enquire into the system of emigration from British India to certain French and British colonies as conducted in the North-Western Provinces and Oudh. Maps, charts, diagrams, and some appendices and footnotes in the original 1882 Report and Diary are not included in this edition.
