    1. [INDIA] 2 more online editions of Allen's Indian Mail , for 1873

    3. Hello List Two further volumes of Allen's Indian Mail, for the year 1873, (2 half yearly volumes) have been digitised and are available to read online. They are on the website of the Bavarian State Library. I think at some point, perhaps next year they will be generally available on the Google Books website, but the 2nd half yearly 1873 volume I found on Google Books was only available to me in a "snippet" version, which may be available to some viewers (eg North America) in a full version. Those on the BSL site do not seem to be searchable unless you download them as a pdf. I also found , on the Bavarian State Library website the 1854 edition of "Indian News and Chronicle of Eastern Affairs" which is a publication very similar to Allen's Indian Mail, which contains BMD notices, passenger notices etc. I thought this edition would also be on Google Books, as all the digitised books from the BSL seem to be available on Google Books, but I could not find it. I don't know if this is related to my rather old computer. If anyone can locate it on Google Books could they kindly advise the URL Also if anyone can locate the 1st half yearly 1873 volume of Allen's Indian Mail on Google Books, could they kindly advise the URL. I have added all the new links to the existing links on the FIBIS Fibiwiki page "Newspapers and journals online" http://wiki.fibis.org/index.php?title=Newspapers_and_journals_online or http://tinyurl.com/27xax6s Note: FIBIS volunteers are currently transcribing BMD notices from Allen's Indian Mail, and have currently completed to 1870, which have been added to the FIBIS database.
