The Great Rebellion of 1857 in India by Biswamoy Pati
Interdisciplinary in focus, this title explores the areas of gender, colonial fiction, white marginal groups, the tribal movements, and penal laws, and associates them with the event. It presents alternatives views and expands and complicates the conceptual boundaries of the Rebellion."The chapters add a fascinating depth and variety to any examination of this important period in colonial history.. Pati has succeeded in producing an edition that achieves his purpose. Not only does it expand the geographic and chronological scale of the Rebellion, but the The Great Rebellion successfully contests colonial narratives that still seem to dominate today." -Robyn Curtis, University of canterbury; New Zealand Journal of Asian Studies 12, 2 (December 2010)
