Exhumation: The Life and Death of Madan Lai Dhingra (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781913109820)

'As soon as I finished this spectacular book, I started it again, unwilling to leave the vivid world of these people - heroic and touching - whose lives, devastated by British colonial decisions long ago, are so very relevant to today's culture wars. Ghosts of colonialism are alive here' (Victoria Brittain);

'In Exhumation, the illumination of a family secret sheds a coruscating light on Britain's colonial past. Part memoir, part history, Dhingra's lively examination brings the events leading up to Partition to vivid and immediate life. Madan Lal's story has, until now, been little known in Britain; this important book ensures that will no longer be the case' (Erica Wagner); '
