[quote=Anonymous]another vote for William Dalrymple .. but take him with a grain of salt.. your younger generation of Indians find him rather insufferable but someone of my parents/grandparents generation were born and lived in the Raj and so they are used to interacting with that sort of Englishman. he's also probably more friendly to the Mughals and modern indian s think that Muslims are the first brutal colonizing power and are a foreign ethnic group .. William Dalrymple doesnt accept that BJP slant so its something to be aware of when interacting with the younger indian families at your kids school. I wonder if Thomas Friedman has written anything about modern India that might helpful. if not a book, essays. the economist has good coverage of indian matters as well. and its pretty well regarded.[/quote]
