Barbara Ramusack describes the pre-colonial origins of the Indian
princes, frequently portrayed as synonymous with oriental luxury,
and how they adapted their public activities and personal
lifestyles to survive as political leaders and cultural icons.
Their collaboration enabled the British to govern India with
relatively limited manpower from the late 1790s to 1947. The book
is intended for students of colonial history and visitors to the
princely states.
