The Cold War on the Periphery by Robert Mcmahon
Focusing on the two decades framed by Indian independence in 1947 and the Indo-Pakistani War of 1965, this study examines American policy towards the Indian subcontinent, and analyzes the motivations behind America's pursuit of Pakistan and India as strategic Cold War prizes.
A magnificent book, written with remarkable clarity.. The best book we have on the process of American involvement in South Asia, 1945-1965, and a critique of Cold War policies in the Third World. Reviews in American History
