15 reviews for Crisis in the Western Himalayas: Reports of J D Cunningham 1841-1842

  1. Pranjal Vats –

    A dense but rewarding read. Cunningham’s reports are fascinating, though Marx’s analysis can be a bit heavy-handed. Still, a worthwhile historical document.

  2. Adarsh Sirmour –

    Good historical context, but the book could have been more engaging. It felt like a collection of documents rather than a narrative.

  3. Divyanshu Shekhar –

    Marx’s analysis is incisive, though at times feels anachronistic. Fascinating primary source material, though.

  4. Priya –

    It was a pretty slow read. But if you’re into history and economics, it is pretty good.

  5. Aswin Rajesh –

    A must-read for anyone interested in the history of the Himalayas or British India. Very insightful!

  6. Siddharth Pandey –

    Revealing and thought-provoking. Cunningham’s reports combined with Marx’s analysis create a powerful historical account.

    A deep dive that requires patience. The insights are there, but be prepared for a scholarly approach.

    The book gives great details about political and economic impacts during that era. Marx’s analysis is pretty impressive.

    A bit challenging to get through due to the age of the writing. However, the content is undeniably important for historians.

    Offers a compelling look at a crucial period in history. Marx’s commentary adds another layer of depth. I really enjoyed it.

  11. Vaibhav Kumar Arya –

    While informative, I found some sections repetitive. Cunningham’s reports are the highlight.

    Interesting perspective on the Sikh Wars era. Marx’s insights are sharp, but the writing style is quite academic and dry.

  13. Vaishnavi Sanjay Bhandari –

    I learned so much about the region’s history. Marx’s unique perspective made it a fascinating read. Will read again!

    Provides a unique lens into the events of the time. The economic analysis is particularly insightful. Highly recommended!

  15. Linu Jangid –

    A valuable resource for understanding the political climate of British India. Some parts were a slog, but overall enlightening.
