This book is one of our bestsellers and is an effort to bring together various aspects of the turbulent period—from arrival of Europeans to India’s freedom from colonial rule—in a concise, all-inclusive, and systematic manner. It offers a chronological narrative of the period to make the development of historical events easy to understand and grasp. It effectively discusses important and major milestones as well as several relevant but little-known details of modern history, and also presents analytical comments on the historical events.
Readers will also find a brief evaluation of the challenges faced by the country immediately after independence and the notable developments that took place under the various democratically elected governments. The important developments of the Nehruvian era as well as the post-Nehruvian time post-1964 are, thus, covered. Each chapter ends with a summary for an easy and quick revision.
