 | White Moguls by William Dalrymple
James Kirkpatrick, a British major stationed in India in the late 18th century married a well-connected and very young woman named Khair un-Nissa Begum--an unusual match in those times and one that was officially tolerated only because of Kirkpatrick`s talents as an administrator. At his early death, his widow nearly married another member of the British colonial service, but this time propriety intervened. This volume examines not only the Kirkpatricks and their relationship but the surprisingly frequent incidence of such mixed marriages in colonial India. AUTHOR: William Dalrymple
