add to cart   close window

The article presents information on the book "Volume Two," by Katherine Mayo. The resolving note of Miss Mayo's book "Mother India" was an essential depravity of the Indian people, especially the Hindus, that operated primarily in sex life and was the basis of all India's woes. Expressed with vehemence and passion, the thesis aroused in the U.S. and England spirited partisanship for or against India, and in India itself violent rebuttal and recrimination. In the years since the publication of that book the mass of evidence and opinion accumulated to discredit Miss Mayo's methods and conclusions has been so great as to subject her literary reputation to the severest doubt.
