Hardcover. Zustand: New. 2nd Edition. 'Mizoram under the British Rule' is the adaptation of the author's doctoral thesis THE ENGLISH AND THE LUSHAIS. The book describes in simple language the history of the different Mizo clans living in Mizoram before and after they came in contact with the English. Head-hunting campaigns of the Mizo-Chiefs compelled the East-India company to send expeditions to Mizo hills. These military expeditions opened up Mizoram to the world. The trial of the Mizo-Chief Lalchukla disclosed many facts hitherto unknown to the authorities of Fort William. Energetic Frontier Officers Captain Lewin and John Edgar did their best to study the Mizo-Problem. These pioneer civil servants rendered yeoman's service in conciliating the Mizo tribes. Abduction of Miss Mary Winchester from Moiner Khal Tea Estate in Cachar set the British army into motion. The Mizos did not accept the British rule happily. After the annexation of Upper Burma, the Chin tribes, an analogous Mizo tribes, made depredations complicating the Mizo Problem. Settlement of the Mizo chiefs and allotment of their territorial jurisdiction had to be tackled carefully. More than law and order was the question of demarcation of the boundaries of the Lushai chiefs living within the administration of India and Burma. Christian Missionaries Savidge and Lorrain brought in the civilizing influences into the Mizo hills. Conversion to Christianity and adoption of western culture transformed the hill men into a modern community. The author, having the experience of extensive field work, had narrated all these events systematically in his book. Administrators, Military Officers, Research Scholars and the Social Scientists will find in the book a veritable mine of information of historic importance. For scholars conducting research on Mizo tribes, the book is likely to prove as a reference tool of inestimable value.

McCabe (1875-1897), Deputy Commissioner, Naga Hills and Kamrup and Political officer, North Lushai Hills. Glossary. Select bibliography. Index. "This treatise aims at giving a glimpse of the renowned frontier personalities shaping the British frontier policy acting in different capacities as civil and military officers under trying circumstances in a hostile climate to open up the North-East to the world. They studied carefully the topography of the hills and plains, made survey of the forbidden land, mixed with the unknown people at the risk of their lives to know their customs and usages, gave a shape to their languages and made them conscious of their rights. Today's North-east what we know now, is the product of their hard labour, sacrifice and farsight. There has been, however, a large number of such officers but we had selected only four; Lieutenant Colonel F.J. Lister, Lieutenant Colonel Thomas Herbert Lewin, Sir John Ware Edgar and R.B. McCabe. Those goliaths came to India in the 19 century to transform the North-eastern hills into a prosperous province full of life and expectation. This multi-disciplinary work will prove of utmost use to one and all concerned." (jacket).
