India After Gandhi
Ramachandra Guha
Guha covers India from 1947 onward in five parts: picking up the pieces, Nehru's India, shaking the centre, the rise of populism, and a history of events. It runs to some nine hundred pages. Published by Picador India in 2007.
Why you should read this
This is Guha's history of independent India from 1947 onward, covering the decades most Indian history writing skips past once the independence movement itself is over. It suits readers who want a single-volume account of the republic's politics rather than a biography of any one leader.
