First Edition
Cloth. Condition: Good. No Jacket. First Edition. Hardcover sans dust-jacket. Illustrated. Small 2" split to rear outer joint, albiet cover still tight and sound, A wonderfully non politically correct history of British India, whose jingoistic tone praises the merchants and soldiers who brought 'civilization' to a barbaric sub-continent. Great read for anyone, who like myself, had to sit through endless graduate history discussions on the importance of diversity, and the inherent evil of Imperialism. Light sunning to cloth at spine, A good. clean reading copy.
