Customer Reviews

A very insightful history on India

Dr. McLeod does a wonderful job explaining the history and colonization of India. This was a wonderful supplement to accompany the trip Dr. McLeod and Dr. Furr hosted to India. They are both excellent professors and inspirational role models. Thank you for the wonderful experience and priceless memories.

Straight-forward and well-done

This is a good book to get a short introduction to India. I could not get too interested in the history before the 18th century but this covers the modern history well, right up to 2002.
