Clive, Proconsul of India (1976) examines the life of the man held by many to be one of the main originators of European imperialism in Asia in the eighteenth century. Dupleix of France and Clive of England set the drive to imperialism in motion – and while Dupleix saw the opportunities, Clive seized them. This book looks at what sort of man Clive was, what he had to contend with, and what were his aims.
