4.9/5 (15926 ratings)

Description:In this comprehensive and wide ranging compendium on Goa, Luis de Assis Correia delves deep into its pre-historic origins, from its earliest settlers of pastoral stock to the arrival of the Sumerians and Aryans. Correia explores the impact of the Muslim invasions, followed by the conflicts with the Marathas and the dawning of the Portuguese colonial era, a period of four-and-a-half centuries that dramatically changed the religious and socio-economic face of Goa.Correia also examines lesser known facets of Goa's singular history such as the rebellion against the Portuguese by a little known hamlet called Cola in 1560, followed by the revolt of the 'AVC Goacars' of Assolna, Ambelim, Velim and Cuncolim. The British presence in Goa in the early nineteenth century is tracked down in detail as well as the shaping spirit of the British India Steam Navigation Company (B1) which, while opening rich avenues to hundred of Goans seeking a new life, also saw the tragic loss of lives when numerous Goans perished in the passenger ships caught in the crossfire of the two World Wars. In this labour of love, Luis de Assis Correia provides a history of Goa that is both learned and eminently readable. It takes readers - both scholars and lay persons - on a journey into Goa's hoary past, often moving far from the beaten path into new area of discovery.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
