Neville Maxwell

Neville Maxwell (1926–2019) was an English-born Australian journalist and scholar who covered South Asia for The Times of London during 1959–1967, and one of the few who have seen the Henderson-Brooks Report, which was India's internal report of the 1962 border war with China, which is still currently being classified by the Indian government, and publicly unavailable to Indians. After five decades of the Indian government failing to declassify the Henderson-Brooks report, Maxwell later uploaded part of the report online and authored the book India's China War. The book is considered a revisionist analysis of the 1962 Sino-Indian War, putting the blame for it on India. His views received praise in People's Republic of China and in the Richard Nixon administration.
