Book excerpt: "A Popular Account of Thugs and Dacoits, the Hereditary Garrotters and Gang-Robbers of India," tells about the criminal India of Victorian times. Thugs were organized gangs of professional robbers and murderers in India, connected to the cult of Kali. Thugs were known to have operated as gangs of highway robbers, tricking and later strangling their victims. Dacoits is another criminal movement that possibly originated because of feudal exploitation as the cause that provoked many people of this region to take to arms. The book offers a reader a lot of interesting information about how those movements originated and acted in colonial India.
