The Calling of History: Sir Jadunath Sarkar and His Empire of Truth

Sir Jadunath Sarkar was knighted in 1929 and became the first Indian historian to gain honorary membership in the American Historical Association. This book examines Sarkar's career - and poignant obsolescence - as a way in to larger questions about the discipline of history and its public life.
