0.0

Fifty years after India became independent and since he wrote "Mission With Mountbatten (ISBN 8122406211), Alan Campbell-Johnson has updated his narrative by putting together his three papers : 1. Address to the East India Association, London March 1952 2. His paper in Encounter 1985 3. Lecture at Southampton University in April 1996 Alan Campbell Johnson firmly stresses that the decision for the partition of India taken by Lord Mountbatten was correct, quick and effective and in the best interests of the sub-continent. By bringing together the texts of the three papers, the author has provided a relevant and appropriate supplement to the golden jubilee edition of "Mission With Mountbatten". This book is one of a trilogy of books authorised by the author. The other two books are : 1. Mission With Mountbatten (ISBN 8122406211) 2. Peace Offering (ISBN 1897829469)
