Empire and Information: Intelligence Gathering and Social Communication in India, 1780–1870 - Cambridge Studies in Indian History and Society
Bayly, C. A. (University of Cambridge)
In a penetrating account of the evolution of British intelligence gathering in India, C. A. Bayly shows how networks of Indian spies were recruited to secure information about their subjects. He also examines the social and intellectual origins of these 'native informants', and considers how the colonial authorities interpreted the information they supplied.
