Empire Families: Britons and Late Imperial India

If you are interested in the intersection between race, ethnicity, class, and identity in the British Empire, let alone colonial India, this is the book to read. Buettner's focus on children sheds valueable light onto a subject, but it also allows the reader to connect--something that students are demanding to see in history books more these days! I would pair this book with Anna Davin's "Growing Up Poor" to get a fuller view of childhood, education, and identity at this point in time.
