From the publisher

This antiquarian volume contains Francis Younghusband's 1930 treatise on British-ruled India, Dawn In India: British Purpose and Indian Aspiration. In this text Younghusband aims to furnish an understanding of the historical and spiritual background of Indian self-governance. A lucid and accessible exploration of the topic, this volume will appeal to those with an interest in the British Raj, and would make for a great addition to collections of related literature. The chapters of this book include: "Sense of Comradeship between those who have worked in India and the Indians", "My Family connection with India", "My experiences with Indians on Explorations", "During Fame, and on Active Service", "The True relationship with India Should be one of Comradeship", etcetera . Lieutenant Colonel Sir Francis Edward Younghusband (1863 - 1942) was an officer in the British Army, as well as an explorer and author. He is most famous for his writings on Asia and foreign policy. Many old works such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this book now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
