The Partition of British India in 1947 resulted in the
establishment of the independent states of India and Pakistan and
the end of the British Raj. The decision to divide British India
along religious lines led to widespread upheaval and communal
violence in the period leading up to and following the official day
of independence, 15 August 1947. In this book, Daniel Marston
provides a unique examination of the role of the Indian army in
post-World War II India. He draws upon extensive research into
primary source documents and interviews with veterans of the events
of 1947 to provide fresh insight into the vital part that the
Indian Army played in preserving law and order in the region. This
rigorous book fills a significant gap in the historiography of the
British in India and will be invaluable to those studying the
British Empire and South Asia more generally.
