'Professor Satish Chandra's work as a historian is characterized by an open minded approach, an exceptional regard for empirical evidence, lucidity of exposition, and insightful generalization. The essays selected for this volume bear the imprint of his scholarship and style...An essay on the Allahabad school of liberal historiography is a show more reminder of the early influences on Professor Satish Chandra's own historical thinking. This book makes an immensely valuable contribution to our understanding of Indian history as a whole.' -J.S. Grewal, Former Vice-chancellor, Guru Nanak Dev University show less
