"By the end of the nineteenth century, 'Brown Victorians' could be found throughout British society, in the docks and factories, universities and theatres, law courts and hospitals. Through two world wars and the independence of India (and Pakistan and then Bangladesh), their importance grew further. From the 1950s, increased immigration produced new generations of British Asians, who experienced both racism and economic hardship as they strove to express their entrepreneurial spirit and assert their religious identity. Here, their extraordinary story is told in full for the first time."--BOOK JACKET.
