Empress - Queen Victoria and India

Klappentext This account of Queen Victoria's relationship with the Raj argues for the monarch's engagement with India's culture and politics having been humane, intelligent and engaged. Taylor suggests that India gave Victoria a profound understanding of non-western forms of rule and society. Draws on interesting resources from the royal archives and Indian record office.
