  1. Ojaswani Gupta

    The language is a little dated, making it a challenging read at times. However, the content is undeniably important.

  2. Prantik Goswami

    A great resource for the history. The delivery and writing style is great. Loved to read it.

  3. K Sagar

    The author’s perspective is quite apparent. It shapes the narrative, but the information is still useful.

  4. Aditya Agarwal

    A comprehensive exploration of French influence! I liked it but needed more maps to follow the campaigns better.

  5. Joseph Hnunthansang

    A decent overview, but felt a bit dry. Could’ve used more personal stories to bring the history to life. Still, informative.

  6. Manan Anand

    Not the most exciting read, but a necessary one for anyone studying this period of Indian history. Heavy on detail!

  7. Simran Keshri

    It’s a bit academic, not for casual readers. Those interested in the French perspective will find it insightful.

  8. Janmayjai Kotawala

    Expected a different perspective, more nuanced take. It is good for research purpose. Worth a read.

  9. Supriya Sahu

    A bit one-sided, but expected given the author. Good source for understanding the British view of French India.
