Prompting us to re-read and re-write parts of what we know about ancient Bengal, this book primarily delves into the Wari-Bateshwar archaeological sites to establish a historically important factual link between military and society in the stream of time. The volume takes us through a thrilling and historically compelling journey through systematically researched historical data, artifacts, and ecofacts from this rather uncharted archaeological site.
The author applies a scholarly style in composing his detailed research into this literary piece beginning artfully by portraying a wider context of defensive features and fortifications of different ages and locations of the world. While describing the military history of Wari-Bateshwar, the volume combines an array of military aspects like tactics, strategy, principles of war, ethos, terrain analysis, forts, fortifications, organizational structures, weapons and even mentions of military music. Based on intensive and extensive field surveys and research, the present work makes a precious new contribution to the knowledge on military and defence systems of ancient Bengal.
