After the Portuguese held its foothold in India in 1500 ad, many European powers subsequently followed the path adopted by Casa da India, when most of India, except the South and North East, were under various Islamic Sultanates. Whether it was the English, Dutch, Danish, or French, they made a fortune through conquests, trade, and subjugation of previous politics. In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, with the decline of the Portuguese, two great powers emerged: the English and the French, and their rivalry are known worldwide. This book is based on the dominion of the French in India during the eighteenth century from an English perspective. The author cites the work of Abbe Guyon, Col. Lawrence’s Memoirs, Col. Wilks’s Southern India, Captain Duff’s History of the Mahrattas, and other contemporary works by British and French authors to write the history of French powers.
