Book excerpt: This classical book brilliantly portrays the history of the Anglo Indian community and presents a magnificent historical reconstruction. It is an enduring work on Anglo Indians, from their darkest to finest hour. The author pulls no punches in this exceptionally well researched book and shows the hidden part of Anglo Indian life over a period of 500 years. The book is an outstanding testament against the colonial racism of the period and the courage of a small community of people. The book is a good read, containing chapters which entertain as well as inform, as when the author describes the ladies of the "fishing fleet" who would arrive from England to India to find husbands, which resulted in the great Indian marriage bazaar in Calcutta. The book describes the thriving and vibrant Anglo Indian Community and their subsequent impoverishment due to various administrative acts by the East India Company who saw Anglo Indian success as a threat. It chronicles the various measures the community took to obtain justice from England by sending emissaries from India to lobby parliament.

The author tells the little known story of Anglo Indian history. How this small community adapted, in the face of difficulties and survived and helped shape the destiny of the British in India. The Portuguese came to India just over 500 years ago. The Dutch, French and the British soon followed, attracted by the famed riches of India, Europeans married local people. These unions resulted in the birth of a new community which later came to be known as Anglo-Indians. Reginald Maher narrates this 500 year old history and brings the achievements of a number of Anglo Indians and their significant contributions to Indian society. This remarkable story of a small community is a story of courage and resilience in the face of adversity. The books are called the Anglo Indian Heritage books as they chronicle the rich and colorful history of the Anglo Indian Community.

Download or read book Cimmerii Eurasians and Their Future written by Cedric Dover and published by Simon Wallenburg Press. This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A belief in Eugenics was widespread in the early half of the last centenary and amongst its prominent believers were George Bernard Shaw, Winston Churchill and Adolf Hitler. This iniquitous social philosophy supposed that Northern Europeans were superior in civilization to such races as Indians. Anglo Indians who were of mixed blood were considered, even more inferior since they inherited the worst characteristics of both races. Anglo Indians came under attack from government scientists who wrote papers on Eugenics and used the Anglo Indians as examples how the human race could be degraded by intermarriage. Cedric Dover's book Cimmerii was written as defence against this racist attack on India's Anglo Indians. A remarkable pioneering book written before the Second World War, it thoroughly disproved the eugenics theory by recounting the achievements of the Anglo Indian race. It is a shame this brilliant book did to find its way to Europe after it was published, as it would have contributed in discrediting the pseudo science of eugenics. The belief in Eugenics led to the killing, institutionalising and outright genocide of races perceived as inferior or undesirable. The book would have defended the Jews who like the Anglo Indians were deemed a threat to racial purity. After the defeat of Nazi Germany, many ideas about "racial hygiene" were publicly renounced by politicians and members of the scientific community. But the work of Cedric Dover will forever stand out, as the work of one brave man who stood up and defended his small Anglo Indian community in a little book, and in doing so, struck the first blow against an evil that was to sweep through Europe a decade later. Cimmerii? Or Eurasians and Their Future by Cedric Dover is the fourth book in the Anglo Indian Heritage series.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revisionist in approach, global in scope, and a seminal contribution to scholarship, this original and thought-provoking book critiques traditional notions about Anglo-Indians, a mixed descent minority community from India. It interrogates traditional notions about Anglo-Indian identity from a range of disciplines, perspectives and locations. This work situates itself as a transnational intermediary, identifying convergences and bridging scholarship on Anglo-Indian studies in India and the diaspora. Anglo-Indian identity is presented as hybridised and fluid and is seen as being representative, performative, affective and experiential through different interpretative theoretical frameworks and methodologies. Uniquely, this book is an international collaborative effort by leading scholars in Anglo-Indian Studies, and examines the community in India and diverse diasporic locations such as New Zealand, Britain, Australia, Pakistan and Burma.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Anglo-Indians The bedroom door creaked with the irritating perversity peculiar to inanimate objects, and Fay Fleetwood said something angry under her breath. Being a door in an old-fashioned Indian bungalow - albeit the bungalow was one in a popular hill-station - it had no lock, only long bolts at the top and the bottom, and the lower bolt scraped on the floor in defiant accompaniment to the squeak of the hinges. Fay listened, anxious, intent. Across the passage her father's snores resounded loud, long, regular. She marvelled how her mother could rest with such a noise in the room - but then it took a good deal to disturb mother either sleeping or awake. In the present circumstances this was fortunate, for had Mrs Fleetwood heard movements at such an early hour in her youngest daughter's bedroom she might have arisen to investigate the cause, and would certainly have prohibited Fay's expedition to the top of the hill to see the dawn break over the snows. Mother would forbid "such mad nonsense" once she knew of it, and add the usual things that so bored Fay to hear: " You must recollect that you are sixteen - no longer a child. We really ought to have left you at home. We really ought not to keep you in India," etc., etc. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
