This book is a comparative study of caste and class in two small villages in the ThanjÄvÅ«r district of southeast India based on fieldwork done by the author in 1951–3. Differing from the usual village study, Gough's work traces the history of the villages over the past century and examines the impact of colonialism on the district since 1770.
