Bengal is home to both Hindus & Muslims who farm the fertile Ganges delta for rice & vegetables as well as fishing the region`s myriad rivers.

This book takes the reader into kitchens in both Bangladesh & the Indian state of West Bengal by way of the seasons & religious & other festivals that shape the region`s cooking. Chitrita Banerji offers her readers authentic Bengali home-cooking — dals, fish, vegetables & kedgerees — rather than the standard fare of Indian restaurants. Hers is much more than a cookbook: it is also a vivid & deeply-felt introduction to Bengal`s diverse cultures & landscapes. ...

- MAP TITLES: the grids shown on our website serve both the civilian & the military 1:50, 000 topographic series. Although the areas covered by maps in both series are identical (apart from some border or coastal sheets), occasionally map titles differ – only one title is shown on the grid, usually the military one. In Galicia, the Basque country & in the Catalan speaking areas the tendency now is to use local place names rather than the often better known Castilian ones. Where possible, both versions are included in our titles.
