Urbanisation in Bengal

This volume presents a comprehensive study of the urbanization of Bengal from ancient to postcolonial times.

Rich in archival sources, this book will be indispensable for scholars and researchers of urban history, urban studies, Indian history, colonial history, postcolonial studies, partition studies, and South Asian history, particularly those interested in Bengal.
