The empire that Curzon left behind in late 1905 was markedly different from the state it had been in at the turn of the nineteenth century when he assumed control. Following a series of significant events and political climaxes, the awakening shook the rulers' perception of Indian peace. A revolutionary movement, characterized by its broad appeal and idealistic spirit, created an inherent incompatibility in the traditional dynamics between the ruler and the ruled. This book, originally published in 1964 and relying extensively on the private papers of the primary protagonists, delves into the years of Indian administration under the leadership of Morley and Minto.
