With contributions from many of those at the forefront of the study of the Indian Army and Commonwealth history, the book makes a substantial contribution to a range of subjects, from the Indian Army's participation in the Second World War, to the evolution of wartime training, frontier operations, and its role in the development of post-war counterinsurgency practice. The volume concludes with several chapters examining the impact and legacy of Partition in 1947
