coffee_rules Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 By 1835, they had already conquerred more than half of India. It would have made sense if it was 1735. But in 1735, it was still the conquest of East India co. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triam Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 No it is not, the original text of the document is here w w w . columbia. edu/itc/mealac/pritchett/00generallinks/macaulay/txt_minute_education_1835. html and you can also notice the word "caliber" in the text is spelt in the american way as opposed to the english way of "calibre" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
