Devotional Islam and Politics in British India - Ahmad Raza Khan and his Movement, 1870–1920

Our sincere thanks are due to Bayly for this outstanding contribution to the study of the history of India in the nineteenth century. We must acknowledge his industriousness in reading enormous amount of source material and integrating information regarding different regions so as to draw inferences about the Indian polity and society as a whole. In the process, he occasionally stumbles about minute details. To cite a few examples, Gaya, though highly revered by the Hindus, could never become a seat of learning like Benaras (p. 145); Arya Samaj was established in Bombay (now Mumbai) though it attracted more followers in the Punjab (p. 157); the author of the book Adhunik Hindi ke Vikas mein Khadragavilas is Dhirendra Kumar Singh and not Dhirendranath Sinha (p. 97, fn, 65). But despite these minor blemishes, the book remains immensely readable.
