Publisher's Synopsis

"The British Crown's 1813 legalization of Christian evangelism among its Indian subjects set off a storm of criticism in Bengal. Mou Banerjee shows that Hindu and Muslim detractors energetically marginalized converts, in the process developing ideals that cemented the connection between political and communal identity on the subcontinent."--.
