FROM PLASSEY TO PAKISTAN
Description
From Plassey to Pakistan is an extraordinary study of 300 years of Indian and Pakistani history from the perspective of the Nawab Nazims, the powerful rulers of Bengal, Bihar, and Orissa. As the last direct descendent of the Bengal Nawabs and the only surviving son of Iskander Mirza, Pakistan's first President, author Humayun Mirza explores the events leading to the British acquisition of the Indian subcontinent, India's independence, and Pakistan's secession to become a separate nation state. He then tells the story of his father's rise to power and the military coup that toppled his government, resulting in his exile. While providing an insider's view of the political events that were instrumental in shaping India and Pakistan, this book paints a picture of the fortunes of a family caught in the tides of history.
