About the Book:- “Bagh o Bahar” is not an original work, but an urdu translation, by Mir Amman, of the Persian romance, entitled “Kissah-i Chahar Darwesh,” or “story of the four Darweshes,” composed by the celebrated poet, Amir Khusrau, of Delhi. The Tale of the four Darweshes has now become a work of so much general interest-inasmuch as it is the book in which every officer in India, civil or military, must undergo an examination- that no apology scems requisite for presenting the public for the first time, with a translation of it. About the Author:-Edward Backhouse Eastwick CB (1814 –1883) was an English orientalist, diplomat and Conservative Member of Parliament. He wrote and edited a number of books on South Asian countries. These included a Sindhi vocabulary and a grammar of the Hindustani language. He was educated at Charterhouse and at Merton College, Oxford. He joined the Bombay infantry in 1836, but, owing to his talent for languages, was soon given a political post. In 1843 he translated the Persian Kessahi Sanjan, or History of the Arrival of the Parsees in India; and he wrote a Life of Zoroaster, a Sindhi vocabulary, and various papers in the transactions of the Bombay Asiatic Society. In 1845 he was appointed professor of Hindustani at Haileybury College. Two years later he published a Hindustani grammar, and in subsequent years a new edition of Saadi's Gulistán, with a translation in prose and verse, also an edition with vocabulary of the Hindi translation of Chatur Chuj Misr's Prem Sagar, and translations of the Bagh-o-Bahar, and of the Anwar-i Suhaili of Bidpai.
