1.India: A HistoryIndia: A History
from Grove Press
Price: $11.50

Customer Review:
This is a very well written book. Every person of Indian origin must read this. I have not read anything as precisely compiled as this in a long time. Reading the book makes me want to go back to India and visit all those places that existed nearby and of whose existence I was never aware of. It is... more info

2.A Concise History of Modern India (Cambridge Concise Histories)A Concise History of Modern India (Cambridge Concise Histories)
from Cambridge University Press
Price: $8.50

Customer Review:
As a relative newcomer to the history of India, I found this a decent introduction to the issues and approaches to them that have shaped modern Indian political life. The two central themes that emerge are first, the nature of colonial rule (under Britain, of course--the term is never used of Muslim... more info

3.A New History of IndiaA New History of India
from Oxford University Press, USA
Price: $38.81

Customer Review:
Wolpert's text is well written on the whole; for instance, his account of Indira Gandhi's assassination and its context is quite gripping over a couple of pages. As far as the coverage, his scholarship on the modern period is up-to-date and persuasive, but he is weaker on the older period. One... more info

from Interlink Books
Price: $6.44

Customer Review:
I read a lot of books by Indian authors. I wanted an easy to manage overview of the country's history. This fit the bill perfectly. It is an enjoyable read and, with the index, is a reference book as well.
Check out the "Look Inside" feature at the top of the page to see the details of the... more info

6.India: The Definitive HistoryIndia: The Definitive History
from Westview Press
Price: $33.59

Customer Review:
The author has made a fair claim that modern India(European colonialism to present) has been far overstated in the history books. Unfortunately this is not a definitive history (no book on India could be "definitive" anyway....), nor that good an overview. There are some nightmarish ommissions-what... more info

7.The Oxford History of IndiaThe Oxford History of India
from Oxford University Press, USA
Price: $21.75

Customer Review:
This was the prescribed text book for history majors in my college in India. I am not sure how much editing and changes have been made in this version, but the book that we read was pretty well written, and provided a lucid account. Sometimes, it is important to read a basic book to get the big old... more info

This book covers the historiography of how Indian developed in the British Empire up through the Mutiny in 1857. The rise of British dominance in the Punjab as well as the surrounding countryside is broken up by category and analyzed through the relevant literature at the time. This book does a... more info

from HarperCollins UK
Price: $68.91

Customer Review:
I was interested in learning about the UK's earliest travels to India and beyond and this book certainly was informative. I thought the author went into an overly exhaustive explanation of some things and he seemed to re-visit certain periods over and over but all in all it was interesting and I'm... more info
