Contents: Introduction. 1. Indianization and the Case of the 'Missing Academies' of the Army, c. 1900-45. 2. The 'Indian Sandhurst': 1925-45. 3. The 'Indian West Point': 1945-60. 4. The National Defence College: Higher Training and Its Management after 1947. Conclusion. Appendix. Bibliography. Index. Making Officers out of Gentlemen aims to study the emergence and evolution of the military training and feeder institutions, beginning in the early twentieth century, which were central to the project of Indianization-a key political and nationalist process aimed at opening up of the officer ranks to Indians in the Indian Army.
