This book offers diverse and original perspectives on South Asia's
imperial military history. Unlike prevailing studies, the chapters
in the volume emphasize both the vital role of culture in framing
imperial military practice and the multiple cultural effects of
colonial military service and engagements. The volume spans from
the early East India Company period through to the Second World War
and India's independence, exploring themes such as the military in
the field and at leisure, as well as examining the effects of
imperial deployments in South Asia and across the British Empire.
Drawing extensively on new archival research, the book integrates
previously disparate accounts of imperial military history and
raises new questions about culture and operational practice in the
colonial Indian Army. This work will be of interest to scholars and
researchers of modern South Asian history, war and strategic
studies, military history, the British Empire, as well as politics
and international relations.
