Crossing the Black Waters: 3: Wealth

on BBC Radio 4 FM

The last of three programmes in which Mukti Jain Campion explores the social legacy of the English East India Company on 400 years of relations between Britain and the Indian subcontinent.

In the early 17th century India was a land of fabulous riches and opportunity for Englishmen, but less than 200 years later the British view of India changed to one of starving, impoverished victims.
