'In his sixty-eighth year the perusal of Major James Rennell's 'Memoir on the Map of Hindustan' (1793) set Robertson again to work, and within a year, encouraged by Gibbon, he brought out his 'Historical Disquisition concerning the Knowledge which the Antients had of India .' The book concluded with a wise hope that the account 'of the early and high civilisation of India, and of the wonderful progress of its inhabitants in elegant arts and useful science, may have some influence upon the behaviour of Europeans towards that people.' L'ouvrage est divisé en 4 sections plus un important appendice et des notes : Intercourse with India, from the earliest Times, until the Conquest of Egypt by the Romans. Intercourse with India, from the establishment of the Roman Dominion in Egypt, to the Conquest of that Kingdom by the Mahomedans. Intercourse with India, from the Conquest of Egypt by the Mahomedans, to the Discovery of the Passage by the Cape of Good Hope, and the Establishment of the Portugese Dominion in the East. General observations. Ces recherches historiques sur l'Inde ancienne sont estimées. Il s'agit du dernier ouvrage de l'auteur. On y trouve notamment un intéressant chapitre sur le commerce de la soie. La première traduction française date de 1792. Provenance : Ex libris gravé monogramme non identifié. Très bel exemplaire conservé dans sa première et très fine reliure en veau raciné

Foundational work written by Robert Orme an official and historiographer for the British East India Company EIC with a noteworthy family provenance. The text chronicles the geopolitical struggles and military conflicts that paved the way for British dominance over the Indian subcontinent. The Cator family built a legacy of immense wealth regional development and colonial influence spanning three generations. Joseph Cator 1733–1818 laid the financial foundations as a wealthy "nabob" and high-ranking East India Company official in Calcutta. His 1780 marriage to Diana Bertie daughter of Sir Albemarle Bertie successfully elevated the family into the British aristocracy allowing him to return to England and manage expanding Kent estates like Beckenham Place Park. His son Peter Cator 1796–1873 leveraged this land inheritance during the mid-19th-century railway boom. Alongside his brother Peter transformed these holdings into the upmarket Cator Estate across Blackheath and Beckenham while also working as a lawyer and establishing educational scripture prizes in Madras. This colonial and legal influence continued with his descendant Sir Ralph Bertie Peter Cator 1861–1945 who served the British Empire as a prominent colonial judge holding key judicial appointments as the First Judge of British East Africa and later in the High Court of Constantinople. .
