Letter: A Trip to Rajkot in Kathiawad by air from Bombay.
One of five typescript letters from Maj Gen Herbert Lawrence Hill, 19 Jan 1947.
Maj Gen Hill describes the local scenery, animals people and villages. He goes to stay with Sir Cyril Hancock, the Resident of the Western Indian States and Baroda Rajkot. In his letter he discusses his fears that a revolution will happen because the authorities spend too much time on their own pleasures and not enough on the condition of their people.
