"I came to India admiring the British, marveling at the imperial capacity for establishing order and peace...I left India feeling that its awful poverty is an unanswerable indictment of its alien government." So wrote Will Durant in 1930, and he went on to add that, 'Any man who sees this crime and does not speak out is a coward." Published in 1930, this book leveled devastating charges at the colonization of India, calling it a calamity and a crime. Durant was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for literature in 1967. In 1977, he was also awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
