Santanu Dutta’s Reviews > An Imperial Disaster: The Bengal Cyclone of 1876 > Status Update

This is a marvelously plotted thesis article based on 1876 Bengal Cyclone following cholera epidemic and famine. The colonial govt could have mitigated the death toll in epidemic and famine. But the colonial govt and the Zamindar class or upper class people did not do anything to save the oppressed. Thorough socioeconomic analysis reported in a subtle way. Takes the reader to see things and fell things.
