''A Fly On The Wheel: Or How I Helped To Govern India'' is a non-fiction book written by Thomas Herbert Lewin and first published in 1885. The book is a personal account of Lewin’s experiences as a British civil servant in India during the mid-19th century. Lewin provides a detailed and insightful perspective on the workings of the British colonial administration in India, describing the challenges and complexities of governing a vast and diverse country. He recounts his own experiences as a young civil servant, including his interactions with Indian officials, politicians, and ordinary people.Throughout the book, Lewin offers his opinions on various aspects of British rule in India, including the policies of the East India Company, the impact of British trade and commerce on Indian society, and the relationship between the British and Indian people. He also discusses the cultural, religious, and linguistic differences between the British and Indian populations, and the challenges of managing a colonial administration that was often at odds with local customs and traditions.Overall, ''A Fly On The Wheel'' is an important historical document that provides a valuable insight into the British colonial experience in India. Written in an engaging and accessible style, the book offers a fascinating glimpse into the politics, society, and culture of India during the 19th century, and sheds light on the complex relationship between the British and Indian people during this period of history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
