      The periodisation of Indian history remains a matter of scholarly debate, often contentious. It might then be wise to write a popular history of the subcontinent by avoiding the ancient-medieval-modern division, thus side-stepping these debates. John

      The title 50 events pre-empts a honest review. Written by an outsider, non-Indian, we cant expect more. Important usurps, valour and persons who struggled for Indian independence were left out e.g. the valour of Rani Lakshmibhai of Jhansi, the role of VO Chidambaram Pillai, Pandit Madan Mohan Malaviya, Lala Lajpat Rai and a host of people responsible the formation Benaras Hindu University were all left out. Tippu Sultan, the grandeur of Vijaya Nagar Empire, the French in Pondicherry etc. were completely left out, to say a few.
