    An eye-opening account of how the East India Company reshaped India’s economy. It is little lengthy but worth reading it. I learnt new thing.

  5. Gauraang Gupta

    A fascinating exploration of the monetary landscape during the British Raj. However, some sections were a bit challenging to follow.

  6. Parthiba Roy Chowdhury

    The book is informative but could benefit from a more engaging narrative. The details sometimes overwhelm the bigger picture.

  7. Ashish Kumar

    Interesting subject matter, but the writing style is a bit dry. I learned a lot about the monetary system, but it wasn’t always an engaging read.

  8. Hemant Kumar

    Garg dives deep into the complexities of currency and coinage. The book provides a unique perspective on the power dynamics between the British and Indian rulers.

  9. Anmol Singh

    Garg’s book is an essential resource for understanding the financial history of the Raj. A bit technical but ultimately rewarding.

  10. Himanshu Kumar

    I enjoyed learning about the East India Company’s influence. The book could have used more maps and illustrations to help visualize the trade routes.

    The book offers a fresh perspective on the history of British India, focusing on its monetary aspects. A must-read for economic history buffs. Highly recommend!

    An insightful look at the monetary history of British India. Garg’s work is detailed and fascinating, though dense in places. A rewarding read for those interested in economic history.

  13. Sunil Kumar Budania

    A well-researched book about the economic impact of the British Raj. Sometimes it gets too technical for a casual reader, but overall a valuable contribution.

  14. Madhur Atre

    While the topic is interesting, the book is quite dense. It requires a good background knowledge of Indian history to fully appreciate it.

  15. Kalpish Choudhary

    A comprehensive overview of the economic changes during the Raj. It’s a bit academic, but worth the effort if you’re serious about the topic.

  16. Rohit Sharma

    I found this book to be well researched and insightful, though perhaps a little too focused on minute details for the average reader.
