Book Name: India Remembered
Writer: Pamela Mountbatten & India Hicks
In March 1947 Lord Louis Mountbatten became the last Viceroy of India,
with the mandate to hand over “the jewel in the crown” of the British Empire within one year.
Mountbatten worked with various leaders to devise but a plan for partitioning the empire into two independent
sovereign states. During the remainder but of his term,
his daughter Pamela kept a diary recounting this remarkable time—from trips to Calcutta, Bombay, Madras,
Orissa, and Assam to the exotic palaces of Indian rulers and the Rajputs in Central and Western India,
and the imperial palace-cities built by the Mughals.
With anecdotes from her writings and a collection of atmospheric photographs,
this account paints a clear picture of an extraordinary transitional period in history.
