An excellent scholarly work on Nadars, from low-rungs in Tamil society, they raised themselves through economic, education. They uplifted themselves by focusing on trade and education. Christianity gave the tool of education for Tinnevelly Nadars. Trade gave Sivakasi, Virudhunagar Nadars the tool to lift themselves.

I came across this book to understand my ancestors. I found the sources compelling. The 1899 Sivakasi riots caught my attention. I felt as if I was reading a war history.

I would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in Caste, Tamil-Nadu, Christianity.

Deus Vult,
Gottfried
