Reviews

<p> It gives good insights into various controversies including Ranj and his leg glance to the throne . I must say that I thought I knew the story of Ranji and his accession to the Jam Nawanagar, but Boria Majumdar gives us a detailed history of the family plots and subplots which would do justice to a Shakespeare play. <p>Rev. Malcolm G. Lorimer, Lancashire CCC Archivist
