'At the heart of this excellent collection of eclectic essays is the idea that there was no European monopoly on the representation of India.. This book suggests that every representation is a misrepresentation, and the difficulty in capturing the British-Indian encounter over the length of the British occupation of the vast and multi-faceted subcontinent ensures the truth of that statement...This book provides an intriguing collection of disaparate specialised views on the British-Indian relationship between 1780 and 1850.'- David O'Shaughnessy, The Review of English Studies
