Book Description
Excerpt from The Views and Opinions of Brigadier-General John Jacob "'I hare sometimes thought it a great pity that every one seems ashamed of publishing to the world that a certain able man it alive and still usable. But no sooner is the able man disabled by death, than any number of Biographers will abuse the poor world for letting him slip through their fingers.' "'Well, well, neighbour, I am thinking it would require some pluck to print thy virtues and sign my name. Yet, peradventure, and we were both honest, a man might dare even this.'" - Old Novel. "Here is an earnest, truth-speaking man; no theorizer, sentimentalizer, but a practical man of work and endeavour, man of sufferance and endurance. The thing that be speaks is not a hearsay, but a thing that he has himself known, and by experience become assured of. His grand excellency is this, that he is genuine. As his primary faculty, the foundation of all others, is Intellect, depth and force of Vision; so his primary virtue is Justice, the Courage to be just. He lives, as he counsels and commands, not commodiously in the Reputable, the Plausible, the Half, but resolutely in the Whole, the Good, the True." - Thomas Carlyle.

Annexation and the Unhappy Valley
Author: Matthew A. Cook
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004293671
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 286
Book Description
Annexation and the Unhappy Valley: The Historical Anthropology of Sindh’s Colonization addresses the nineteenth century expansion and consolidation of British colonial power in the Sindh region of South Asia. It adopts an interdisciplinary approach and employs a fine-grained, nuanced and situated reading of multiple agents and their actions. It explores how the political and administrative incorporation of territory (i.e., annexation) by East India Company informs the conversion of intra-cultural distinctions into socio-historical conflicts among the colonized and colonizers. The book focuses on colonial direct rule, rather than the more commonly studied indirect rule, of South Asia. It socio-culturally explores how agents, perspectives and intentions vary—both within and across regions—to impact the actions and structures of colonial governance.
