Ulsterman Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 a friend of mine gave me a book yesterday, "The Army In India And Its Evolution":1924 printed in Calcutta by the Supndt. of Govt. Printing.Any thoughts as to the usefulness and accuracy of this work before I start reading? Is it worth my time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Haynes Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 If it is the book I think it is, it is not so bad. You must, of course, take it in the context of the time (post-War, post-regimental integration, and a time of rebuilding and redefinition in the context of a growing anti-imperialist challenge) in which it was written, but it is still of value. Not serious historical scholarship, but worth having and worth reading. I have it on the shelves and sometimes graze in it.Hope that helps.
