One of the earliest works on the subject (i.e., India in English/American
literatures) is that of E.F. Oaten's _Anglo-Indian Literature_ (London:
K.Paul, Trench, 1908). This work was updated in Bhupal Singh's _A Survey
of Anglo-Indian Literature_ (London: Oxford Univ. Press, 1934) which was
author's doctoral dissertation at Oxford.
As far as Indo-Anglian litrature is concerned (i.e., literary writings of
Indians in English), pioneering work was done by K.R. Srinivasa Iyengar.
See, for example, author's:
- Indo-Anglian literature (Bombay: PEN Books, 1943)
- Indian contribution to English literature (Bombay: Karnatak Publishing
House, 1945); and
- Indian Writing in English (Bombay: Asia Publishing House, 1945).

(Philadelphia: Univ. of Penn Press, 1960).
and
Sushil Jain's _Indian literature in English: a bibliography_ 1967.
These works have now been superceded by Singh's bibliography on the
subject, published by Gale of Detroit.
