Description

This book takes us to the shores of the Indian Ocean, in a brilliant reinterpretation of how culture developed and history was made at the height of the British raj. Bose explores the social and economic webs of these shores from 1850–1950, finding evidence of the interdependence of the peoples from the Middle East to East Africa to Southeast Asia.
