This article presents a list of four books. Andrew Mellor's "India Since Partition" is probably the most useful today to persons wishing factual information, it recounts events from shortly before partition on August 15, 1947, until some time in 1950. Though the text consists of only 148 small pages, it contains a surprising amount of narrative and discussion, which in almost all cases is accurate. Sir Ivor Jennings, a distinguished student of political science, in his "Commonwealth in Asia," describes the background for constitution-making in India, Pakistan and Ceylon, and the new constitutions which India and Ceylon now have.
