This book is an exploration of British empire building in South Asia in the final decades of East India Company hegemony in India, tracing the history of military expeditions west of the Indus and north of the Sutlej rivers into Afghanistan, Sind, Gwalior, and Punjab. This study explains causes and consequences of British imperial policy as it was made, largely by the governors general of India, who operated from a sense of white entitlement to rule dark skinned peoples.
