Tipu Sultan

[Kishore Krishna]

On a slightly tangential note: Two Views of British India edited by Edward
Ingram provides a look at British strategy and objectives in India in
Tipu's time. It contains the correspondance of Henry Dundas who ran the
Board of Control of the East India Company in London and Lord Wellesley who
was the Governor General in India.
