Book Description
The East India Company at Home, 1757–1857 explores how empire in Asia shaped British country houses, their interiors and the lives of their residents. It includes chapters from researchers based in a wide range of settings such as archives and libraries, museums, heritage organisations, the community of family historians and universities. It moves beyond conventional academic narratives and makes an important contribution to ongoing debates around how empire impacted Britain. The volume focuses on the propertied families of the East India Company at the height of Company rule. From the Battle of Plassey in 1757 to the outbreak of the Indian Uprising in 1857, objects, people and wealth flowed to Britain from Asia. As men in Company service increasingly shifted their activities from trade to military expansion and political administration, a new population of civil servants, army officers, surveyors and surgeons journeyed to India to make their fortunes. These Company men and their families acquired wealth, tastes and identities in India, which travelled home with them to Britain. Their stories, the biographies of their Indian possessions and the narratives of the stately homes in Britain that came to house them, frame our explorations of imperial culture and its British legacies.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Law Relating to India, and the East-India Company: With Notes and an Appendix The Second Edition of this work has been undertaken under circumstances to which it will be proper briefly to refer. At the General Court of Proprietors of East-India Stock, held on the 17th of June last, the work was noticed in terms of warm commendation, and several Members of the Court having expressed a wish that Copies should be supplied to the Proprietors, the Chairman intimated that measures would be taken for the purpose. The Court of Directors, with the concurrence of the President of the Board of Commissioners for the Affairs of India, having thereupon been pleased to extend their approbation to the design, the present revised and enlarged edition of the work was forthwith commenced. The greatest care has been taken to render it not altogether unworthy of the distinguished favour which it has obtained. Every part of the work has been carefully examined with a view to the total exclusion of error; many new notes have been introduced; the Acts of the British Parliament are brought down to the close of the last Session, and those of the Government of India to the latest period to which they have been received. Many other additions have been made, tending greatly to increase the value of the work. Among the more important may be mentioned the introduction, at the suggestion of an influential Proprietor, of the By-Laws of the Company.
