Description
The events of 1857 aroused passions both among participants and observers to a level unsurpassed before or since in the relations between Britain and India. For historians the revolt of 1857 has been a cornucopia. Ever since the days of Kaye, whose work still commands magisterial authority, through the jingoism of V.D. Savarkar and the spate of scholarly monographs in the centenary year, the rebellion has been a popular subject for general accounts. Mughal-Library
