Description

Ravindra Rathee's first book True To Their Salt wouldn't have come about without the extensive research he'd undertaken into the military career of his grandfather. The result is a fascinating study of the role Indian soldiers played in supporting the British, and in this discussion with Josh Provan Ravi reflects on elements of the complex dynamic between the two countries explored in the book. As we work our way through 1802-3 and beyond the Napoleonic Quarterly is paying careful attention to British ambitions in India, making this a timely exploration.
