This illustrated book provides an account of the architectural and topographical history of Calcutta, which in 1990 celebrates the 300th anniversary of its foundation. Published to accompany an exhibition of the same title at The British Library, its illustrations are drawn mainly from the collection of plans, prints and drawings at the India Office Library and 25 are reproduced in colour. A work of reference for historians of India and the architecture of the Raj, it also has much to interest the general reader, print collectors and those who know modern Calcutta.
