But in August 1946, exactly a year before Independence, Calcutta erupted in street-gang fighting. A cycle of riots – targeting Hindus, then Muslims, then Sikhs – spiralled out of control.As the summer of 1947 approached, all three groups were heavily armed and on edge, and the British rushed to leave. All hell let loose. Trains carried Muslims west and Hindus east to their slaughter. Some of the most brutal and widespread ethnic cleansing in modern history erupted on both sides of the new border, carving a gulf between India and Pakistan that remains a root cause of many evils.From jihadi terrorism to nuclear proliferation, the searing tale told in Midnight’s Furies explains all too many of the headlines we read today.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBGenre: HistoryTopic: Law & PoliticsRelease Year: 2017 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
