Excerpt from Recent Disturbances and Military Executions in Ceylon My principal object in the following Notes is to attract attention to the wrongs of the inhabitants of the Kandian Provinces in Ceylon; and the attempt to illustrate their early history and present position is in furtherance of the same purpose. Although I was summoned before the Committee of the House of Commons on Ceylon affairs, I had there only to answer such questions as were asked at me, and could be of comparatively little service to the cause I advocate - viz., justice, without unnecessary delay, to the Kandian people. Before parliament was prorogued last summer, twelve months had elapsed from the time that great slaughter had been made amongst the inhabitants of the Kandian country, by the military acting in aid of the civil power. This slaughter was followed by so-called martial law and military executions, of which I cannot perceive any justification in the "Papers relative to the affairs of Ceylon, presented to both Houses of Parliament by command of her Majesty, in February 1849" - commonly called the Blue Book. On the contrary, I see much on the part of the Ceylon government which requires explanation, and much which I believe it will be impossible to reconcile with sound policy, or to prove consistent with good faith and common justice. In Ceylon, from 1826 until 1837, I had many opportunities of acquiring information on the subjects hereafter referred to, and particularly when I was commandant, district judge, and government agent in Màtale - a district, the people of which suffered severely previous to and during the supercession of law in 1848, (p. 220, Ceylon Blue Book.)

A magisterial history of resistance to the rising of the British empire As the call for a new understanding of our national history grows louder, Britain’s Empire turns the received imperial story on its head. Richard Gott recounts the long-overlooked narrative of resisters, revolutionaries and revolters who stood up to the might of the Empire. In a story of almost continuous colonialist violence, Britain’s crimes unspool from the beginning of the eighteenth century to the Indian Mutiny, spanning the globe from Ireland to Australia. Capturing events from the perspective of the colonised, Gott unearths the all-but-forgotten stories excluded from mainstream histories.
