Drawing from experts of South Asia, Mormons, and the British East India Company, I analyze each perspective uncovering an almost imperceptible competition of social hierarchies. Little did I know it would become the most popular piece I have written to date. The analysis centers around an encounter of working class Mormons, a young British lad, and his South Asian servants on the deck of the Monsoon, anchored in the river Hooghly a rowing distance from Calcutta. The research for Baggage on the Hooghly is part of a larger work covering the entire journey of one of the men aboard the ship.
