Description
The revolt of 1857 continues to arouse interest and debate. This book, first published in 1984 and now in paperback for the first time with a new introduction, remains one of the best studies of popular resistance and peasant rebellion. In his new introduction, which provides an update on the historiography of peasant revolt, the author also charts some of these changes and their relevance to a deeper understanding of the uprising of 1857.
