The book is a nostalgic remembrance of the series for those of us who loved it. It is also an introduction to the history of imperial India, how it all happened, and what went wrong, leading to the atrocities by Hindus and Muslims. Although there is no bibliography included, there are many books on the subject in local libraries, especially about Lord Mountbatten, Mahatma Gandhi, Jawaharlal Nehru and Mohammed Ali Jinnah. And of course, this is a great introduction to the four books covered in the series as well as Scott’s epilogue, Staying on and an incentive to read them. ( )
