EDITORIAL


Welcome to the eight edition of the International Journal of Anglo-Indian Studies. Megan Mills writes about the experiences of Anglo-Indians in Burma during the Second World War and discusses their bravery during a period of crisis. Lionel Lumb, a Canadian academic born in India, discusses the impact of the internet on the maintenance of Anglo-Indian identity. Blair Williams discusses his research dealing with Anglo-Indians in the UK and India. According to Willaims the Anglo-Indians in the UK have virtually lost their Anglo-Indian identity while the Anglo-Indians in India are maintaining theirs. To conclude this issue of the IJAIS we have a short piece by Esther Lyons about the history of a number of well known Anglo-Indian families such as the Skinners.
