This collection offers not only vignettes and evidences from that period, but also captures moments in times of the era that has shaped and defined the present day western Maharashtra. The erstwhile Bombay Presidency is the field of the author’s particular interest and he discusses in this book newspaper editors, novelists and scholars of the Bombay Presidency. His informative yet informal style of acquainting the reader with the theoretical underpinnings of local history shows that he bears scholarship lightly. The style is at once appealing and engrossing.
