Book Synopsis Aligarh's First Generation by : David Lelyveld
Book excerpt: David Lelyveld explores the nature of Muslim cultural identity in ninteenth century India and the changes it underwent through colonial rule. This book shows how one institution, The Mohammadan Anglo Oriental College, with its founders and early students mediated these changes during the first 25 years of its existence, and evolved methods of adapting to the challenges of colonialism and nationalism.
