Crime in India: With an Introduction on Forensic Difficulties and Peculiarities

The author, in this book, has a peculiar intent of presenting a picture of ‘the duplicity, cunning’ and the ‘lack of moral fibre’ of the Indian cultivators. He believes that ‘the Englishman at home’ knows very little about the people referred to in the book. It is an Englishman’s judgemental gaze at the Indian people, who are portrayed here as ‘law abiding’ if alone, but ‘dangerous in crowds’. The book is divided into three parts with an introduction and a total of twelve chapters.
