In his first book historian and filmmaker Sam Dalrymple provides a riveting account of Asia's recent history. A history that has been overlooked for the most part in India.
He maps the sprawling Raj or the British Indian empire that extended from Oman, Qatar, UAE and Yemen on the west to Burma on the East and how this geography came to be the modern nation states that exist today.
Replete with fascinating details Shattered Lands illuminates contentious contemporary politics.
Some of the questions it answers:
Why did leaders of India's freedom like Mahatma Gandhi expressly rule out Burma from an independent Indian state?
How did Nepal and Bhutan remain independent?
What don't state records of the annexation of Hyderabad fail to reveal?
How could Oman, Qatar and UAE have been part of India?
