W. H. Inglis

Very little biographical information about W. H. Inglis is easy to confirm from reliable online sources. What can be confirmed is that he is credited as the author of A Report of Major Hart's Case, of Rice-Frauds, near Seringapatam, a work from the early 1800s that was later digitized by Project Gutenberg.

That book focuses on accusations of fraud tied to rice supplies during the period around Seringapatam, placing Inglis among writers whose work sits between political pamphlet, investigative report, and colonial-era historical record. Even without many personal details surviving online, his name remains attached to a document that captures the tensions of administration, accountability, and empire.

Because dependable sources on his life are scarce, it is safest to see W. H. Inglis as an obscure historical author remembered chiefly for this single surviving work rather than for a well-documented public career.
