The Rise of Bombay: A Retrospect (1902) is a historical book written by Stephen Meredyth Edwardes. The book offers a detailed account of the growth and development of the city of Bombay, now known as Mumbai, from its early days as a small fishing village to becoming a bustling metropolis. The book is divided into several chapters, each exploring a different aspect of Bombay's history. Edwardes begins by describing the early history of the city, including its early inhabitants, the Portuguese influence, and the British colonization. He then goes on to discuss the growth of Bombay as a trading hub, its role in the Indian independence movement, and the impact of the city's rapid industrialization.Throughout the book, Edwardes provides a wealth of information about the city's architecture, culture, and social life. He also includes numerous illustrations and photographs to help readers visualize the city's transformation over time.Overall, The Rise of Bombay: A Retrospect (1902) is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the history of Mumbai or the development of urban centers in India.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
