The Battle of Plassey and the Conquest of Bengal by Michael Edwardes Book PDF Summary
The Battle of Plassey, won by Robert Clive for Britain, was decisive in establishing a firm base in Bengal and from that victory the British became an imperial power whose Indian Empire was to last for nearly 200 years. Plentiful and apposite illustrations throughout this work lend humanity and colour to a study important not less in imperial than in purely military terms.
