India's Prisoner

A Biography of Edward John Thompson, 1886-1946

"Edward John Thompson - novelist, poet, journalist and historian of India - was a liberal advocate for Indian culture and political self-determination at a time when Indian affairs were of little general interest in England. As a friend of Nehru, Gandhi, and other Congress Party leaders, Thompson had contacts that many English officials did not have and did not know how to get. Thus, he was an excellent channel for interpreting India to England and England to India.".

"This biography covers politically significant events between Thompson's arrival in India and up to his death, and casts considerable light on Thompson and his struggles with his religion and his relationship with India. The first biography of E. J. Thompson, India's Prisoner will have widespread appeal, especially to those interested in South Asian and English history, literature, and cultural history."--BOOK JACKET.
