Indian Summer: the secret history of the end of an empire
Author: Alex Von Tunzelmann
Year: 2004
From the back cover we kind of expect to learn more about Edwina Mountbatten (wife of the the last Viceroy of India (1947) and the first Governor-General of the independent Union of India) and Nehru's affair.
However, it is more a historical book about India independence with foregrounds of the personalities and relationships of the main political leaders.
Very interesting to understand India as it is today.
