Dr Baker deserves credit for remedying the neglect of the Central Provinces and Berar. It should be appreciated that it is not an easy task to write a monograph on political changes in a province where information about the social and economic history of the region is still rudimentary. Baker has studied the period 1919-1939 intensively to indicate the process through which political leadership of the province passed from Marathi to Hindi-speaking politicians.
