This book was released on 2017-11-30 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Indian Railways as Connected With British Empire in the East Delhi Railway, that from Lahore to Ghasiabad, a length of 335 miles. This is fed by metalled roads only at the stations of Amritsar, J ullun dur, Ludhiana, Rajpura, Umballa, Saharanpur, Muzaffarnagar, and Meerut, z'.e. At intervals of 32, 49, 35, 53, 13, 55, 36, 35, and 27 miles; while the other stations, thirty-six in number, are practicably unapproachable by cart traflic for three months in the year, and during the remaining nine months only at a heavy cost in carts and bullocks, which have to make their way over the village tracks which do duty for roads. To anyone who sees the actual state of the case, the wonder is that a large portion of the traffic ever gets to the line at all. I have shown, indeed, in more than one of my Inspection Reports, from cases that have actually come under my notice, that the cost of cartage to the line, even in fair weather, is from ten to forty times the cost of carriage over the same length on the railway; though even this is a mild statement of the case, for such is the state of the cross-country roads that, in the rainy season, they are practicably impassable by carts, and traffic is more or less suspended all over the country. Let it be borne in mind that the above line passes through a richly cultivated and populous country for the whole of its length, and is very much better provided with roads than other line.

Download or read book The Chaos of Empire written by Jon Wilson and published by PublicAffairs. This book was released on 2016-10-25 with total page 586 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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. Through the lives of administrators, soldiers, and subjects-both British and Indian-The Chaos of Empire traces Britain's imperial rule from the East India Company's first transactions in the 1600s to Indian Independence in 1947. The Raj was the most public demonstration of a state's ability to project power far from home, and its perceived success was used to justify interventions around the world in the years that followed. But the Raj's institutions-from law courts to railway lines-were designed to protect British power without benefiting the people they ruled. This self-serving and careless governance resulted in an impoverished people and a stifled society, not a glorious Indian empire. Jon Wilson's new portrait of a much-mythologized era finally and convincingly proves that the story of benign British triumph was a carefully concocted fiction, here thoroughly and totally debunked.

Book Synopsis Race and Power in British India by : Valerie Anderson
Download or read book Race and Power in British India written by Valerie Anderson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-06-09 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the nineteenth century the British had ruled India for over a hundred years, and had consolidated their power over the sub-continent. Until 1858, when Queen Victoria assumed sovereignty following the Indian Rebellion, the country was run by the East India Company - by this time a hybrid of state and commercial enterprises and eloquently and fiercely attacked as intrinsically immoral and dangerous by Edmund Burke in the late 1700s. Seeking to go beyond the statutes and ceremony, and show the reality of the interactions between rulers and ruled on a local level, this book looks at one of the most interesting phenomena of British India - the 'Eurasians'. The adventurers of the early years of Indian occupation arrived alone, and in taking 'native' mistresses and wives, created a race of administrators who were 'others' to both the native population and the British ruling class. These Anglo-Indian people existed in the zone between the colonizer and the colonized, and their history provides a wonderfully rich source for understanding Indian social history, race and colonial hegemony.
