In which year did James Mill publish his three volumes book titled "A History of British India" ?

  • A.1817
  • B.1818
  • C.1815
  • D.1816

Answer: A

James Mill published A History of British India in 1817.

The three-volume work divided Indian history into Hindu, Muslim and British periods, a periodisation the NCERT history textbook discusses and criticises. Mill, who never visited India, argued that British rule would bring civilisation to the country.

1815, 1816 and 1818 are near-miss dates; the book appeared in 1817.
