British India 1900-47

Dr Carr provides an invaluable overview of British India and the demise of the Raj. This Active Studies publication is designed to engage learners and enable the processing of historical information. The text is illustrated with maps and photographs, and will ably support both teachers and students across I.B., National Diploma, GCSE and A Level courses. The content traces Britain's attempts to maintain control over India in the twentieth century. Carr explains both the purpose and effect of political reform and nationalist protest. In doing so, he throws light on the process of decolonization and on India's partition in 1947.
