""The Rise of Bombay: A Retrospect"" is a historical account of the growth and development of the city of Bombay (now Mumbai) in India, written by Stephen Meredyth Edwardes and originally published in 1902. The book covers the period from the earliest recorded history of the city up until the late 19th century, tracing its evolution from a small fishing village to a major port and commercial center. Edwardes provides a detailed analysis of the factors that contributed to Bombay's rise, including its strategic location, the growth of trade and commerce, the influence of British colonialism, and the development of infrastructure such as railways and telegraphs. He also examines the social and cultural changes that accompanied this transformation, including the emergence of a cosmopolitan and diverse population, the rise of the Indian nationalist movement, and the impact of industrialization.Throughout the book, Edwardes draws on a wide range of historical sources and personal observations to provide a vivid and engaging portrait of Bombay's past. He also offers insights into the challenges and opportunities facing the city at the turn of the 20th century, providing a valuable historical perspective on one of India's most important urban centers. Overall, ""The Rise of Bombay: A Retrospect"" is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in Indian history, urban development, or the complexities of colonialism and globalization.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
