Partition : The story of Indian independence and the creation of Pakistan in 1947 by Barney White-Spunner (UK edition, paperback) - 9781471148002

The International Bestseller `Barney White-Spunner's book stands out for its judicious and unsparing look at events from a British perspective.' Dominic Sandbrook, Sunday Times Review 'This book is at its most powerful in its month-by-month narrative of how Partition tore apart northern and eastern India, with the new state of Pakistan carved out of communities who had lived together for the past millennium.' Zareer Masani, BBC History Magazine
