Illustrations: 130 colour and 28 b/w illustrations and 2 maps Description: The influence of French culture in India has been studied for many years. It has long been acknowledged that the French presence in India has had a major impact on the culture of the regions where they settled as well as elsewhere in the country, in less known and more subtle aspects. This book provides select examples where cross-cultural influences have endured. The trajectory of India's history was frequently determined by centres of trade that affected the political scenario of the time and resulted in military initiatives necessary to consolidate power bases. French military influence, however, was not restricted merely to securing French trading posts. It extended from bringing European military techniques to the construction of fortifications in Indian independent states thus changing the vocabulary of warfare in India. More importantly, the French settlements in the country still retain the architectural essence of the 17th century and the cross-cultural influences of the time are still clearly evident. In the 50th year of India's Independence, we celebrate the adaptation and assimilation of global cultures over the centuries.

Book Description
Illustrations: 1 map Description: The present work based principally on unpublished records, French and English, is the first attempt to write a comprehensive history of the French in India, 1763-1816. The period was less thrilling in dramatic interest than the time of Dupleix, Bussy and Lally, but nevertheless of great historical importance, since it was during these years that the political destiny of India was talking a new shape. The principal object of the present work is to carry on the story of Anglo-French rivalry in India from the point where it is generally supposed to have ended to the time when it really came to a final close. But while putting emphasis on the political projects, intrigues and actual military efforts of the French to retrieve their fortunes in India, sufficient attention has also been given to the internal history of the French settlements, including administration, economic condition and trade and commerce. The work is thus a comprehensive history of the French in India for the period under review, and not merely an account of the later phase of Anglo-French hostilities.
