A Memoir on the Indian Surveys
By- C.R. Markham
The object of this classic memoir is to furnish a
general view of all the surveying and other geographical operations in India
from their first commencement in order that, in reading reports of current work,
ready means of reference to the previous history of each branch of the subject
may be at hand. In case it is desired to follow up an enquiry into the details
of any particular operation or series of operations, the references in the
footnotes have been made as copious as possible.
Sir Clements
Robert Markham (20 July 1830 – 30 January 1916) was an English geographer,

between 1863 and 1888, and later served as the Society’s president for a
further 12 years. Markham also served as a geographer to the India Office. He
was a prolific writer as his publications include: A Memoir of an Indian
Survey.
