The Year of Blood: Essays on the Revolt of 1857

Autor Rudrangshu Mukherjee
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 21 iun 2017
Rudrangshu Mukherjee places the ‘soldier-peasant’ at the forefront of the Revolt. Violence has rarely been described with so much realism and subtlety. The imaginative use of primary source materials adds clarity to accounts such as the massacre in Satichaura Ghat  and the trial of Mangal Pandey. The layers of complexity that defined the relationship between the rulers and the subjugated are also exposed.
