Battles of the Honourable East India Company: Making of the Raj
Synopsis
The honourable East India Company was "often inglorious and almost never honourable". Yet it came to trade and ended up by establishing an empire. There were a number of milestones during its 250 year journey, from 1612 to 1849. There were triumphs and tragedies; acts of great valour and dignity as well as acts of disrepute and disgrace.

This book is the story of that conquest.
