Britain's Empire
Author: Richard GottPublisher: Verso Books
ISBN: 1839764228
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 577
Book Description
A magisterial history of resistance to the rising of the British empire As the call for a new understanding of our national history grows louder, Britain’s Empire turns the received imperial story on its head. Richard Gott recounts the long-overlooked narrative of resisters, revolutionaries and revolters who stood up to the might of the Empire. In a story of almost continuous colonialist violence, Britain’s crimes unspool from the beginning of the eighteenth century to the Indian Mutiny, spanning the globe from Ireland to Australia. Capturing events from the perspective of the colonised, Gott unearths the all-but-forgotten stories excluded from mainstream histories.

The Punjab "rebellion" of 1919 and how it was Suppressed
Author: Pearay MohanPublisher:
ISBN: 9788121206716
Category : Abuse of administrative power

Pages : 0
Book Description
This is virtually the first time that Pt. Pearay Mohan Dattatreya s classic, first published in Lahor in 1920, which was immediately proscribed and confiscated by the British rulers, is being made available. This is a complete, unbridged edition with a slightly modified title, since the original title An Imaginary Rebellion and How It was Suppressed might convey little to the reader today. The book is a virtual encyclopaedia on the Punjab under martial law in 1919, and not just about Jallianwala Bagh. The publication of this classic, eighty years after it was suppressed by the frightened colonial regime, should be warmly welcomed by all interested in the events, that proved to be a turning-point in the history of the freedom movement.

The Coolie's Great War
Author: Radhika SinghaPublisher: Oxford University Press, USA
ISBN: 019752558X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 412
Book Description
Though largely invisible in histories of the First World War, over??550,000 men in the ranks of the Indian army were non-combatants. From the porters, stevedores and construction workers in the Coolie Corps to those who maintained supply lines and removed the wounded from the battlefield, Radhika Singha recovers the story of this unacknowledged service. The labor regimes built on the backs of these 'coolies' sustained the military infrastructure of empire; their deployment in interregional arenas bent to the demands of global war. Viewed as racially subordinate and subject to 'non-martial' caste designations, they fought back against their status, using the warring powers' need for manpower as leverage to challenge traditional service hierarchies and wage differentials. The Coolie's Great War views that global conflict through the lens of Indian labor, constructing a distinct geography of the war--from tribal settlements and colonial jails, beyond India's frontiers, to the battlefronts of France and Mesopotamia.
