Description and Table of Contents
Description
Most general political histories of modern South Asia focus on India and the Indian National Congress and tell us little about Pakistan. Most accounts of the background to the independence of Pakistan serve to explain why Pakistan was created. They tell us little about the Pakistan that was actually created. This book discusses the pre-1947 histories of those parts of the South Asian sub-continent that territorially became the original Pakistan so as to provide a more substantial introduction to the distinctive history of Pakistan after Independence than has so far been available.
