Bangladesh did not exist as an independent state until 1971. Willem
van Schendel's state-of-the-art history navigates the extraordinary
twists and turns that created modern Bangladesh through ecological
disaster, colonialism, partition, a war of independence and
cultural renewal. In this revised and updated edition, Van Schendel
offers a fascinating and highly readable account of life in
Bangladesh over the last two millennia. Based on the latest
academic research and covering the numerous historical developments
of the 2010s, he provides an eloquent introduction to a fascinating
country and its resilient and inventive people. A perfect survey
for travellers, expats, students and scholars alike.
