The city gave India its first printing press. The first foreign-recognised educational institution was also in Kolkata. The first lift (a squirrel cage one) was inaugurated in the city of joy. A large number of Nobel-nominated people and institutions are also from Kolkata.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt's not just the Oriental connection which people link with Kolkata, it has stories of many religions, cultures, stalwarts, freedom struggle, education, architecture, nationalism, literature, sports, science, revolts and languages. This has attracted many, insiders as well as outsiders, to the city.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs an outsider to the city, the history bug caught the author as soon as he landed in Kolkata. The weekend habit of discovering the city has resulted in this novel where the author cherry-picks 21 places in and around Kolkata. He expects incremental awareness and eagerness towards these facets of history in particular and a sense of respect for all-historical elements of this great city in general.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sukhamaya Swain\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1646506650\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781646506651\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Notion Press Media Pvt Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/24\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 174\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.58lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.40d","brand":"Sukhamaya Swain","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45897005596927,"sku":"9781646506651","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_620e7fa3-d1b0-4223-96c1-25f7c878f9f6.jpg?v=1721372917","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/chronicling-calcutta-sukhamaya-swain-9781646506651","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
