Title: Migrant Races
Description: "Migrant Races is a study of image, identity and mobility in colonial India and imperial Britain in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Focusing on the careers of Kumar Shri Ranjitsinhji, who arrived in England as a teenager in the 1880s and returned to India in 1907, the book unravels the significance of the lives and roles of a misfit living in a colonial world." "In examining the collaboration of British, Indian and other agents in the construction of the mobile imperial man, and focusing on the remarkable life of one who leaves the colony and then returns, this fascinating study will be of interest to students, lecturers and enthusiasts of the history of the British empire and Indian nationalism, diaspora studies and sports history."--BOOK JACKET.
