It is a matter Of particular gratification to me that His Highness the Maharaja Of Mysore was graciously pleased to accept the dedication Of this work. It is peculiarly appropriate as it is this work that exhibits, for the first time, the glorious part played by the last great Hoysala Of Mysore in saving South India and Indian culture for the Hindus. His Highness has but added one more to the many gracious acts Of kindness for which Iam debtor without hope Of repaying the kindness except by gratitude. I hope, however, it will be given to me to repay this kindness by further work which may deserve well of His Highness.
