The evolution of agrarian economy in Gujarat, (India) 1850-1930

This PhD Dissertation is a study of the evolution of agrarian economy in Gujarat, a region distinguished by its geography and culture, and by virtue of its location on the mid-west coast of the Indian sub-continent, an emporium of urban commerce for centuries. Peopled by small peasant landowners relying largely on the foodgrains they grew, and the victim of overtaxation and a Price Depression during the first few decades of the nineteenth century, the Gujarat countryside had to wait a while before it was to see any improvement in its fortunes.
