""A Letter To The Rt. Hon. Edmund Burke, On The Subject Of His Late Charges Against The Governor-General Of Bengal"" is a historical document written by Nathaniel Brassey Halhed in 1783. The book is a response to Edmund Burke's accusations against the Governor-General of Bengal, Warren Hastings, who was accused of corruption and mismanagement during his time in India.
