One better than Alexander - The remarkable story of how Britain conquered India

Many believe that Britain’s conquest of India was a forgone conclusion. Images may arise of a technologically superior wealthy British empire taking on an India totally unprepared for European imperialism - in the same vein as the Scramble for Africa or the colonisation of the New World. Nothing could be further from the truth.
