"David Cannadine's elegant essay on the contradictions of British imperialism has all the usual virtues of his work. No historian exceeds him in wit, acuity, or fluency; few are his equal in scholarship or sensitivity to evidence or language, which he formulates with finesse and utters with candor. He is free of the restraints of both fashion and tradition."Cannadine, David is the author of 'Ornamentalism How the British Saw Their Empire', published 2002 under ISBN 9780195157949 and ISBN 019515794X.
