About The Book

The book deals with all aspects of Social and Cultural History of India Since 1556 in detail and in a simple lucid manner. The first five chapters of the book make a quick survey of the Social and Cultural History of India from Mughals to the 19th Century. The next five chapters deal with Indian Islam, Growth of New India, Regeneration of Indian Society, the Freedom Struggle and March of Free India. Overwhelming stress has been laid on Social and Cultural affairs throughout this book. An attempt has been made to describe how men and women lived and thought and how their lives influenced by the great figures that have passed were of human history. The descriptions are brief and accurate. The chapter on ‘The Freedom Struggle’ takes readers back again to British India where the intense struggles were at length fought out during the British period with its far reaching results for good and ill. The book would be of great value to the students as well as the teachers. Even a laymen would enjoy reading the book because of its simple style.
