The British In India by David Gilmour
A Social History of the Raj
A richly textured social history that examines how British people lived, worked and ruled in India from early colonial expansion through the end of the Raj, exploring the everyday institutions, hierarchies and cultural encounters that shaped imperial authority—from army barracks and civil service offices to clubs, homes and missionary ventures—and tracing how attitudes, race, gender and leisure sustained and eventually undermined British power, leaving complex legacies in both Britain and India.
