<br/><br/> As India and the world are roiled by questions of nationalism and identity, this book journeys into the history of one of the worlds newest and most fascinating regions: Northeast India. Having appeared with the stroke of a pen in 1947, as the British Raj was torn asunder and partitioned into India and Pakistan, this is a region of hills inhabited by myriad tribes. Until colonial rule, they had lived in their ancient ways.<br/><br/>In this book, Samrat Choudhury chronicles the processes by which these remote hilltribes, and the diverse people inhabiting the valley of the vast Brahmaputra River below, became parts of the imagined nation that is India. Taking a long view, this absorbing political history chronicles the separate pathways by which imperialism, Christianity and the British love of tea brought each of the contemporary regions constituent states into modern India.
