Reviews

This book provides a valuable contribution to the history and literature of anti-colonial rebellion in the nineteenth century and beyond. It is well worth reading for the sheer variety of texts it examines and for the way Reddy showcases the complexity of the ideas and positions within them. (Mukti Lakhi Mangharam, Victorian Studies, Vol. 61 (4), 2019)
