Many scholarly volumes on India, the majority by British authors, have
been published during the past thirty years. The authors have applied
an objective method as they searched through old government records, personal
letters and dairies for relevant information on the Raj—the British
Empire in India. Anyone interested in further reading on the history and
culture of India will find the selections on the following list fascinating
and very informative. They have provided me with indispensable information
in understanding India.
