Description
This book is the story of the founding of the British empire in India. It is invariably a sordid story of brutality, tempered to some extent by blatant lies, corruption and intrigue. The romanticization of the empire was a phenomenon of the later Victorian period. Nostalgia for the Raj still lingers among some circles. For such people this volume will be a useful corrective; the past always seems better than the contentious present. Even for others, who may not see the past through rose tinted glasses, this book will help to place things in perspective. Please note: Taylor & Francis does not sell or distribute the Hardback in India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka
