Summary Examining the backgrounds and lives of the 83 judges who served on the Bombay High Court during the colonial era, as well as the court's colonial past, this book explores why such British colonial institutions flourished even after India became independent. In the process, it reveals some of the complex changes which took place in Indian society, the legal profession, the law, and the legal culture during the colonial era.
