0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication Great Britain, Channel 4 Books, 2001.
Description 256pRed Spine
Summary/Abstract Presents a new history of Britain's relationship with India, focusing on the East India Company, the private company that traded with, and in spite of itself, came to rule India before it became the jewel in Queen Victoria's crown. Thus the book tells of the mutual love affair of two sophisticated cultures in the eighteenth century and how that affair soured in the early nineteenth century as British respect for India turned to disdain, culminating in the end of Company Rule and the birth of the Raj.
