A History of India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Britain
Donna & Vikesh Amey Bhatt • Illustrated by Salini Perera
Publishing for the 75th anniversary of the Partition of India, this book explores how India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Britain have shaped one another throughout history.
There are many different ways of telling the same story, and how you tell it depends on your point of view. This book aims to piece together the interesting, surprising, and sometimes very sad story of India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Britain. From exploring the vast empires and amazing inventions of pre-Partition India, to the challenges faced by South Asian migrants to Britain – or celebrating the amazing culture, innovations and achievements of British people of South Asian heritage today – this book explains why Indian, Pakistani and Bangladeshi history is British history.
