The book on the mutiny and its impact, covering the period from 1857 to 1884, has deep bearing on the political and constitutional developments in the annals of Indian sub-continent. The causes of the mutiny depict the sense of frustration and anger against the functioning of the East India Company. Its administrative end became a glaring phenomenon in 1857 and its functions were transferred to the British Government which remained in power for nine decades–indeed a crucial period in our history. The Viceroy became the overall Incharge of the administrative machinery of the new set up. The theme has been divided into twenty-five chapters with a comprehensive detail. This indeed gives a vivid picture of historic personalities and significant events attached to their long-drawn socio-economic and political career.
