Has Oude Been Worse Governed by Its Native Princes Than Our Indian Territories by Leadenhall Street? (1857)

""Has Oude Been Worse Governed By Its Native Princes Than Our Indian Territories By Leadenhall Street?"" is a book written by Malcolm Lewin in 1857. The book explores the comparison between the governance of Oude, a former princely state in India, and the governance of British Indian territories by the East India Company, particularly the role of Leadenhall Street, the headquarters of the company in London. The author argues that Oude was not worse governed by its native princes than the Indian territories were by the company, and that the British government's annexation of Oude was unjustified. The book provides a detailed analysis of the political and economic conditions of Oude and the British Indian territories, and highlights the negative impact of British colonialism on India. It is a significant work in the history of British colonialism and the Indian independence movement.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
