William Malcolm Hailey (1872-1969) was, by common consent, the most
distinguished member of the Indian Civil Service in the 20th
century, and one of the few raised to the peerage (1936). Going out
to India in 1894, he served as the first chief commissioner of
Delhi (1912-18), as Finance and then Home Member of the Viceroy's
Council (1919-24), and then as Governor of the Pubjab (1924-28) and
the United Provences (1928-34). As advisor to five viceroys, he was
one of the most intelligent developers of the British strategy in
response to the challenge of Gandhi and the Indian National
Congress. After leaving India he had what amounted to a second
career in relation to Africa, during which he directed two editions
of the African Survey (1938, 1956), wrote two important reports on
British colonial administration, and served as an advisor to the
Colonial Office.
