This is a fascinating portrait of the princes of India from their pre-colonial origins to their decline after 1947. Frequently caricatured as British stooges, Ramusack argues that the princes were not a British creation. Many were consummate politicians who exercised considerable autonomy until the distintegration of the princely states.
