Description

About The Book: This book's narrative offers a unique historical perspective, highlighting the profound influence of the American War of Independence on India's development. It illustrates the interconnectedness of American and Indian history during the late 18th century. England attempted colonial rule in both regions simultaneously, resulting in revolutionary responses—America seeking to overthrow British authority, while India aimed to prevent its consolidation. The book underscores the parallel conflicts and their impact. The surrender of Burgoyne in America inspired Hastings to establish an Indian Empire. Cornwallis, involved in both struggles, marked the transition of imperialism from the New World to the old. The French involvement further emphasizes historical causation. This narrative complements Ranade's work on the Marhatta Empire's rise and growth and reveals India's earliest united effort by its princes to resist foreign domination, although it lacked sincerity and ended in disaster. The essay aims to inspire an intelligent interest in history study, acknowledging changing perspectives and new hopes in the wake of the Great War.
