Dear all and especially Richard I am presently in India and h just bought a book called An Era of Darkness by Shashi Tharoor. He is far from complimentary towards WSC. He talks about the " odious behaviour of Winston Churchill ,who deliberately ordered the diversion of food from starving Indian civilians to to well-supplied British soldiers " . He quotes WSC as saying the famine their own fault as Indians were breeding like rabbits. And why hasn't Gandhi died yet. HE appears to reply heavily on Madhusree Mukerjee's account of the famine. I have at the back of my mind that there was an article somewhere in Finest Hour that dealt with this issue , and also a review of Mukerjee's book. Can any one help me trac he reference so I can look it up upon my return. Regards Derek Greenwell Sent from my iPad
