Half Hours with the Hindus (1859) by John J. Pool is a collection of essays that offers an overview of Hindu religious practices, customs, and philosophy. Written during British colonial rule in India, the book reflects Pool’s curiosity and fascination with Hinduism. He explores various aspects of Hindu society, including rituals, festivals, and temple practices, while attempting to provide a balanced view of Hindu culture. Although the book was intended to inform and educate Western readers, it also reflects the biases of its time, often presenting Hindu practices through a colonial lens. It remains an important historical document on 19th-century perceptions of India.
