Description

About The Book: India as I Knew It 1885-1925 by Michael O'Dwyer is a memoir detailing his experiences as a British colonial officer in India. Serving as Punjab's Lieutenant Governor, he defends British rule, justifies repressive policies like martial law, and argues that strong governance was necessary to counter revolutionary movements. The book provides insight into British administrative strategies, recruitment for World War I, and his justification of the Jallianwala Bagh massacre. It remains a controversial account of British imperial policy in India.
