Need help with a quote on the British Raj

Does anyone know which historian is credited with saying:

Amritsar was the massacre which destroyed the Raj


I'm reading a book which mentions the quote but only goes on to say that it was from 'a later historian'.

I was hoping to use this quote in my A2 Historical Enquiry, but a cursory google search hasn't turned up any results.

Has anyone else come across the quote before?
Anyone?
Google says the best bet is Alfred Draper. His 1981 book is called 'Amritsar: The Massacre that Ended the Raj.'
