Administering Colonialism and War

This book explores the world of colonial India during the 1930s and 1940s. The reader is introduced to a number of fascinating lesser-known characters of British colonial administration and is provided with in-depth discussion of their roles during the late Raj. The book focuses on three key aspects of the period: the birth of radio broadcasting in India; World War II on the sub-continent; and the Bengal Famine that took hold during the conflict.
