| Summary: | A South Asian family history that goes up to the 1300s--this is Tamim Choudhury's treasured subject. From the expansion of Bengal Sultanate that was co-led by his ancestor into Sylhet--northeastern Bangladesh--to his clan's globalization across three continents outside Asia, this is his story. Anyone interested in knowing more about Sylhet, Bangladesh, and South Asia should take a glance at this book. If not interested, at least use it as a decorative piece for your coffee table; the cover does look like artwork, right? Written in honor of his maternal grandmother--the first woman to donate her eyes in Bangladesh--this storybook encompasses the Delhi Sultanate, Mughal Empire, British India, up to post-independent Bangladesh.
