Book Description
Its been more than fifty years since India obtained its independence from Britain. Despite this, the colonial period continues to distort Britains perception of the Indian subcontinent. From Riches to Raj presents a fresh perspective on the traditional perception of Britains relationship with Indiaincluding the very footholds on which India was established as a colony. Challenging traditional perceptions, From Riches to Raj sheds a new light on this fascinating period of British and Indian history. Beautifully illustrated throughout, it seeks to reveal the real India, examining the country both before the Raj and throughout.
