includes bibliography and index

Calcutta: The Stormy Decades edited by two of India s finest historians put together essays on the city s history and culture in the 1940s, a decade that made and unmade Calcutta. This book fills an important gap in Indian historiography. What is also worth noting is that many of the contributors are young scholars. It also has some translations from Bengali by Sumit Sarkar, who needs no introduction to students of modern India.
