Clive, Proconsul of India (1976) examines the life of the man held by many to be one of the main originators of European imperialism in Asia in the eighteenth century. Dupleix of France and Clive of England set the drive to imperialism in motion – and while Dupleix saw the opportunities, Clive seized them. This book looks at what sort of man Clive was, what he had to contend with, and what were his aims.

Britain's Army in India

From its Origins to the Conquest of Bengal

By: James P. Lawford

Britain’s Army in India (1978) tells how a joint stock company, the Honourable East India Company, came to organise a private army and lay the foundations for the establishment of the British Empire in India. From its origins as warehouse guards, through its struggles against the Dutch and the Portuguese, and its rivalry with the French, the decay of the Moghul Empire, this book examines the Company and its army up to the battle of Buxar in 1764, which established the force as the leading military power in India.
