Description
G.A. Henty's historical fiction, With Clive in India, describes the period between the arrival of Clive in India and the end of his career and is lively in the extreme. Initially, the English were traders who relied on the acceptance of nearby princes; they were experts of Bengal and much of southern India.The author has given a full record of the events of that exciting time. The book follows real historical events, revolving around the battles, attacks, and military campaigns of Robert Clive in mid-18th century India, when the English, Dutch, and French East India organisations were all competing for business and regional authority in the profitable Indian subcontinent.
