The Rise of Islam and the Bengal Frontier, 1204-1760 - Book by Richard M. Eaton

Richard M. Eaton’s "The Rise of Islam and the Bengal Frontier, 1204-17" examines the establishment of Muslim rule in Bengal during the 13th century. It focuses on the complex interaction between indigenous Bengali culture, regional politics, and the spread of Islam, especially the impact of Sufi missionaries and Muslim rulers. Eaton argues that Islam's expansion was less a violent conquest than a process of cultural adaptation and integration. His analysis highlights the formation of Bengal’s unique Muslim identity, shaped by both Persian influences and local traditions, as well as the political dynamics of the Delhi Sultanate.
