Book Description
Excerpt from The District of Bakarganj: Its History and Statistics This work is the result of nearly five years' experience in Bakarganj, and of subsequent researches in the India Office and the Library of the British Museum. My primary object has been to write a book which would be useful and interesting to the officers of Government and the inhabitants of the district, and therefore there is much in it which can have no attraction for the general reader. It is pleasing to think that so many district-histories are now in print, and that we are beginning to have for Bengal some such statistical account as the industry and patriotism of Sir John Sinclair caused to be prepared for Scotland. Among older works we have the accounts of Rangpur, Dinagepur, and Purneah, by Francis Buchanan; that of Cuttack, by Mr Stirling; and the excellent description of Dacca, by Dr Taylor.

The Rise of Islam and the Bengal Frontier, 1204-1760

Pages : 387
Book Description
In all of the South Asian subcontinent, Bengal was the region most receptive to the Islamic faith. This area today is home to the world's second-largest Muslim ethnic population. How and why did such a large Muslim population emerge there? And how does such a religious conversion take place? Richard Eaton uses archaeological evidence, monuments, narrative histories, poetry, and Mughal administrative documents to trace the long historical encounter between Islamic and Indic civilizations. Moving from the year 1204, when Persianized Turks from North India annexed the former Hindu states of the lower Ganges delta, to 1760, when the British East India Company rose to political dominance there, Eaton explores these moving frontiers, focusing especially on agrarian growth and religious change.
