About The Book
"In Search of Siraj's Son & Descendants" is a compelling historical investigation by renowned historian Amalendu De, brought to English readers through the sensitive and skilled translation of Nandini Guha. This work seeks to unravel one of the enduring mysteries in Bengal’s history—what became of Nawab Siraj-ud-Daulah’s son and his descendants after the fall of the last independent Nawab of Bengal?
Through meticulous archival research, rare historical records, and on-ground exploration, the author traces the legacy and hidden lineage of Siraj, whose defeat in the Battle of Plassey (1757) marked a turning point in Indian history and paved the way for British colonial rule. The book dives deep into neglected narratives, offering new insights into the lives of those erased from official history, the persecution they faced, and their silent survival across generations.
More than just a biography or political chronicle, this book is a quest to recover forgotten identities and give voice to those who lived in the shadow of a tragic legacy. It challenges popular myths and enriches our understanding of Bengal’s post-Plassey historical landscape.
A must-read for students of history, researchers, and anyone intrigued by untold stories of resistance, survival, and royal bloodlines in exile.
