  1. Gauri Mongia

    A good effort but somewhat dry and academic. I wish it was a bit more accessible to the general reader.

  2. Aditi Singh

    Saikia’s work is comprehensive, offering great insights into Assam’s complex past. A bit dense, but rewarding.

  3. Nishtha Arora

    I learned so much about Assam’s modern history. Saikia’s analysis is sharp and compelling. Highly recommend it.

    An interesting book. It needed a better editor. The information presented was not always easy to digest.

  5. Mayur Ravindra Jha

    This book provided a much-needed perspective on Assam’s journey. Deeply researched and insightful, though lengthy.

  6. Siddharth Bhandari

    A detailed look at Assam’s history, but sometimes gets bogged down in details. Still a worthwhile read for those interested.

    An okay book. It shed some light on a period I knew little about, but the writing style was not engaging.

    A brilliant and comprehensive account! It is truly a must-read for anyone interested in the history of Assam.

    The book offered new perspectives. However, certain parts felt disjointed. It was difficult to get through.

    A mixed bag. Some chapters were fascinating, others felt repetitive. Overall, an average reading experience.

    Excellent historical account! Saikia does a superb job of connecting events and explaining their significance.
