||31 of 31 people found the following review helpful.| The vaunted British Raj in India gets a good revision in this book. Not an easy read but vastly informative.|By lyndonbrecht|This is a fairly difficult book, but a very good one. The difficulty lies in whether a reader has some previous knowledge of India, the British Raj and a bit of its history. The historical cast is fairly large, the scale is all of India for several cent

The popular image of the British Raj-an era of efficient but officious governors, sycophantic local functionaries, doting amahs, blisteringly hot days and torrid nights-chronicled by Forster and Kipling is a glamorous, nostalgic, but entirely fictitious. In this dramatic revisionist history, Jon Wilson upends the carefully sanitized image of unity, order, and success to reveal an empire rooted far more in violence than in virtue, far more in chaos than in control.
