An Indian In The House
For more than three centuries when India was controlled and exploited by the British Empire, its people were not considered fit to have a say in the running of their own country, let alone to be given any political power. Around the turn of the 19th century, four men helped to change that forever: Dadabhai Naoroji, Mancherjee Bhownaggree, Shapurji Saklatvala and Satyendra Sinha. They were the first four Indians to achieve Parliamentary office in the United Kingdom, three of them as MPs, all for different parties, the last as a Cabinet Minister. While you could scarcely find four more contrasting personalities, the four Indian pioneers had several vital points in common: all four loved and fought for their country, all four were highly motivated and fiercely intelligent, and all four shared a passion for justice and equity. Between them they earned India, and Indians, a long-overdue respect in the West, and opened the door for many of their countrymen to be welcomed into the ranks of government in their wake. This book tells their stories. Published by Mereo Books.

Born to Rule
This data-rich sociological study uses everything from census figures to Who's Who to analyze how, over 125 years, the British elite have used status, elite education, and powerful social networks to shape politics and cultural values.
