Modern History Book (Hindi) Advance Foundation

Modern History (Advance Foundation) by The Study IAS by Manikant Singh is a well-structured book that covers India’s transformation from the 18th century to the post-independence era. It begins with the decline of the Mughal Empire and political revolutions of Bengal, moves through the three phases of colonialism (mercantile, industrial, financial), and provides a detailed analysis of the Indian National Movement—from early nationalism and socio-religious reform movements to the Gandhian era and the final struggle for independence.

The book also explores post-independence challenges, nation building, Nehruvian economic policies, and India’s position in the international system. Written in a clear and exam-oriented style, it combines conceptual clarity with factual precision, making it indispensable for UPSC (Prelims & Mains), State PCS, UGC-NET, and other competitive examinations.
