History is boring, right? Wrong. It’s because no one ever answered the questions you were actually curious about.
How did the British map India without GPS? What Indian treasures are in British museums? How did Indian children join the fight for freedom?
Travel back over 400 years to when the British first came to India for trading and quietly built an empire on the side. Follow their rise, the resistance against them and the long, dramatic fight for freedom. With funny cartoons, cool facts, interactive questions and a fun quiz at the end, this book makes history exciting, silly and smart – all at once.
Read it.
Laugh a little.
Then take the test to see how you fare.
