Anderson’s work is a valuable contribution to the field. It provided me with a greater understanding of the complexities of race and power during the Raj.

The book is well-written and meticulously researched. However, I wished there was more focus on the voices of Anglo-Indians themselves.

While informative, the book could have benefited from more personal narratives. The academic tone made it a little difficult to connect with the subject matter.
Monika Vemala –
I struggled with this one. It felt more like a textbook than an engaging narrative. Good for research, perhaps, but not for casual reading.
Manan Goyal –
The historical context was really informative. I liked the depth and explanation offered about Anglo-Indians during the British Raj.

Interesting topic, but the writing felt a bit dry at times. Explores a fascinating, yet often overlooked, aspect of British India. Some chapters were more engaging than others.

I enjoyed learning about the Anglo-Indian community, but the book felt a bit dense. It requires focused reading and some prior knowledge of the topic.

Provides a decent overview, but at times it felt repetitive. The author does a good job of highlighting the struggles faced by Anglo-Indians.
