reviewed Language in South Asia on October 28, 2013 Language in South Asia
If you genuinely seek misinformation, bigoted view through the lenses of an imperialist with closed mind, distorted facts, thorough absence of cultural understanding, historical lies, read this book. Obviously it was commissioned by the imperialists to justify their horrific oppression and exploitation, and to camouflage the brutality by the Brits.
