Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, focusing on an incident of historical importance in 1756, chronicles the captivating tale of the capture of Calcutta and the tragic events that followed. The book delves into the details and circumstances leading up to the British occupation of Calcutta, laying bare the tensions and conflicts that characterized the region at the time.

The book delves into the relationship between the British East India Company and the local rulers, exploring the challenges and negotiations that marked their interactions. The core of the book centers on the fateful events of June 1756, when the Nawab of Bengal, Siraj ud-Daulah, attacked and captured Calcutta. The author vividly recounts the siege, focusing on the unpreparedness of the British garrison and the subsequent surrender of Fort William.
