- W39335384 abstract "have the same Preface by B.N. Pande, the General Editor, but the other con tributors vary from volume to volume, being generally drawn from professors, readers and lecturers of Indian universities. The general tone of the volumes is scholarly and considered, though the great length in each case, and particularly in the first volume, might have been reduced without injuring scholarship. There is a general uniformity of plan and pattern—one does not feel jogged by eccentric ity of style or judgment—but this is a tribute less to the contributors than to the Literary and Style Editor, Samuel Israel, and also perhaps to the General Editor. For a document so extended in time and volume, and intended for students of Indian history, would have to be above reproa.ch in this respect. The volumes are also well produced—credit: Sharada Prasad. Another respect in which the Centenary History deserves praise is the care ful documentation that follows each contribution. This might have been expected of academic contributors, but is not always honoured in our country, and it is a comfort to see it so carefully observed here. The index, however, is highly selec tive in each volume, and does not always include the names of commentators. Judith Brown, for instance, is frequently quoted, but her name does not appear in the Index of any of the three volumes. If this was a publishing decision before the librarian got down to work on the index, it was a decision of arguable merit, for in histories of this kind, commentators are often as important as the events and per sonalities they interpret. However, a comparative glance at the three volumes points up one impor tant fact: the 886 pages that, in Volume III, cover the years 1935-1947 are proba bly accounted for by the increasing tempo and significance of the political history of India between the Act of 1935 and the achievement of Independence. This period is incomparably more controversial to the scholar, and more interesting to the common reader than anything that has preceded it, not excluding the struggle of the Swarajists, with personalities as impressive as Motilal Nehru and C.R. Das. For between 1935 and 1947 the men who guided our political destinies vis-a vis the British, had grown to their full stature. They had found their leader in 1919 and were then earmarked for special missions." @default.
