Description

Guiding the reader on a tour of the sights and sounds of an emerging city struggling to shake off colonialism and wrestling with the formation of its own budding identity, Narayan's beguiling book offers descriptions of Mumbai's daily life, its people and its institutions: the parts of the whole that come together to create this diverse and vivacious place. This valuable text is a rare and enthralling glimpse into a fascinating period and place otherwise lost to time.

Author Biography:

Govind Narayan (1815-1865) was one of the leading authors of his age, producing a series of original books that were principally designed to strengthen the moral fibre. Murali Ranganathan lives and works in Mumbai. After having worked in various jobs, Murali turned to research. 'Govind Narayan's Mumbai' is his first publication. Gyan Prakash is Professor of History at Princeton University.
