Twenty-three years in India is a long period. Long by any standards. When I came to India in September 1949, this vast sub-continent was passing through the throes of the aftermath of partition. This is a history of India from its pre-history until the modern era, written to be accessible and easy to read, with photographs showing the landmarks. The book does not purport to be an encyclopaedia on the sub-continent. It is just a bird's-eye view, a flashback, a neutral observer's assessment of an area undergoing a silent revolution, surprising in content as well as its future repercussions on man and his history.
