This is a good start for learning about India's independence and partition to create Pakistan. There are many opinions and views on this period in India's history so this is just one view - well researched but should be compared to: Indian Summer: The Secret History of the End of an Empire by Alex von Tunzelmann.

    The best thing being that the author gives the portrait of the times with neutral approach.... really touching.
