An Interim Government was in office in India from 2 September 1946 till August 1947. A unique coalition of the Congress, Muslim League, and others, it presided over a time of transition. Overshadowed by Partition, this last government of British India attempted to govern and left legacies. This book recovers the Interim Government, its personalities and their body of work, and reaffirms the 'continuity and change' paradigm of post-1945 India.
