Bengal Famine 1943: As Revealed In A Survey Of The Destitutes In Calcuuta - Gyan Books
About The Book: Bengal Famine 1943: As Revealed in a Survey of the Destitutes in Calcutta by Tarak Chandra Das is a pioneering anthropological study of one of India’s worst humanitarian crises under British rule. Based on firsthand surveys and fieldwork, the book documents the suffering, displacement, and death caused by the famine. Das combines statistical data with personal narratives, humanizing the tragedy and exposing systemic failures. His findings influenced the Famine Inquiry Commission and were later cited by Amartya Sen in Poverty and Famines as vital empirical evidence.
