Product Information

This is a fascinating portrait of the princes of India from their pre-colonial origins to their decline after 1947. Frequently caricatured as British stooges, Ramusack argues that the princes were not a British creation. Many were consummate politicians who exercised considerable autonomy until the distintegration of the princely states.

Reviews
'... a considerable scholarly achievement ... Broad-ranging in its coverage, both geographically and thematically, it will be an important reference work for all those interested in modern South Asian history.' Contemporary South Asia, "Now that much necessary ground has been covered with the appearance of this book, one hopes that it will be possible for more emphasis on processes of political and ideological change in indigenous adaptations to conditions of European imperial rule ." Institute of Historical Research, 'This outstanding book fills a glaring gap in India historiography; it is the result of thorough research in archives and the literature and is very likely to achieve the status of a classic contribution … a well documented history of colonialism in India from a new perspective. They include important surveys of research done or still missing, of discrepancies in British administration and diversity of the Indian States. The author's rigorous sense of nuances helps her to draw an authoritative picture of many aspects of the often over-simplified princely positions … this major work was indeed written in the spirit of the Rudolphs' 'modernity of tradition' and Benedict Anderson's approach to history. It is a 'must'.' Journal of Colonialism and Colonial History, '… not only an important contribution to South Asia's modern history, but a fine synthesis of academic research done in the past decades. Ramusack's book will encourage historians of South Asia to take a different view of the princely states. Her well written opus thus serves as a point of departure for an, ultimately, new writing of South Asia's history.' Internationales Asienfoum, 'Barbara Ramusack's The Indian Princes and their States is a significant contribution to the history of princely India and the nature of indirect rule under British paramountcy ... The Indian Princes and their States is a long overdue treatment of princely India during the colonial period ... Her research is rich, interweaving primary literary and oral sources, colonial and postcolonial histories, archival photographs, paintings, maps, and references to literature, film and music. Her prose is readable; her language concise and clear. Furthermore, there is a sense of this scholar's deep interest in her topic ... It is a vital resource on an area of Indian history that has often been neglected.'
