At Sir Stafford Cripps' request, Professor Coupland joined his staff, and this book is the result of close personal observation of the Mission at work, reinforced by a thorough knowledge at first hand of the background issues out of which the Cripps Mission was born.With admirable brevity and clarity Professor Coupland traces the course of events in India from the outbreak of the present war, through the "August Offer," the answering "Sapru Proposals," the arrival of Sir Stafford Cripps with the Draft Declaration, down to the final rejection of the Draft by all political parties. By a careful analysis of the attitudes of Congress and the Moslem League, as well as those of the minority groups, and the sharp divisions of opinion between opposing factions within the parties, the author is able to show why the negotiations, begun and carried on with high hopes on both sides, eventually broke down. The story of the Cripps Mission is told without bias by a man who cannot regard it as a complete failure, since for the first time in the history of Anglo-Indian relations, the essential sincerity of the British government in general and its emissary in the person of Sir Stafford Cripps in particular was in the main not questioned by the Indian people or their leaders. 606 $aIndian leadership$7Generated by AI 607 $aIndia$7Generated by AI 615 0$aIndian leadership 676 $a954.04 700 $aCoupland$b Sir Reginald$01433331 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910157755003321 996 $aThe Cripps Mission$94360821 997 $aUNINA
