First published in 1949 within the aftermath of Partition, Stern Reckoning documents in great detail the riots, massacres, casualty figures, and political events that led to the division of India into the two nations of India and Pakistan. The author's interpretation remains controversial, and the narrative, based on personal observation and the reports of a government fact-finding organization, remains invaluable for the scholarship of the period.
