    A fascinating glimpse into a bygone era. Macaulay’s Minute is essential reading, but some sketches felt a bit dry. Overall, a worthwhile read for history buffs.

    Interesting anecdotes, but the writing style felt a bit dated. I appreciated the insights into the Anglo-Indian community, but it dragged in places.

    The book provides a valuable historical context. Some parts are more engaging than others, but it’s good source of historical information.

    A must-read for anyone interested in British India. The sketches are insightful, and Macaulay’s Minute is as relevant as ever.

    The book started strong but the later chapters felt rushed. Macaulay’s section was insightful. I’d recommend with reservations.
