  1. Prapti Roy

    An outstanding academic study. Anderson’s analysis is sharp and insightful. This book is essential reading for scholars of British India and post-colonial studies.

  2. Nitika Nagar

    A thought-provoking exploration of identity and belonging. Anderson successfully captures the nuances of Anglo-Indian life in the th century.

  3. Ayushi Sharma

    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.

  4. Dipankar Adhikari

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

  5. Aniket Birda

    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.

  6. 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.

  7. Manan Goyal

    The historical context was really informative. I liked the depth and explanation offered about Anglo-Indians during the British Raj.

  8. Dhanush H B

    A well-researched book that sheds light on the Anglo-Indian community. I found the analysis of class and identity particularly insightful. Highly recommended for history buffs.

  9. Anchit Ambesh

    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.

  10. Paras Jain

    A great read if you’re into history. It offers new angles into social and identity issues. Will recommend to friends who love history like me.

  11. Neeraj Kumar Sharma

    A must-read for anyone interested in colonial history. The book expertly examines the unique position of Anglo-Indians within the British Empire. I learned a lot!

  12. Gaurang Athalye

    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.

  13. Radhika Jain

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