Publisher's Synopsis
Few empires have been as powerful or as long-lasting as the British Empire in India. In this classic work, H.H. Wilson and James Mill tell the epic story of how a small group of adventurers and traders became the rulers of a vast subcontinent. Drawing on a wide range of sources, they paint a vivid picture of a complex and fascinating society. Highly recommended for anyone interested in the history of India or the British Empire.
