Calcutta History - DUBIOUS sentence
It says: "By the 1850s, Calcutta had two areas: White Town, which was primarily British and centred on Chowringhee and Dalhousie Square; and Black Town, mainly Indian and centred on North Calcutta." This simply isn't possible, the European element of Calcutta according to the 1901 census were 11,425 British in the city, the total population being 949,144 - so the British were roughly 1% of the population. Even though the Europeans may have enjoyed more personal living space, it's abundantly clear that aside from a few streets and tiny enclaves like Chowringhee and Dalhousie Square, the metropolis was (demographically speaking) overwhelmingly Indian in virtually all geographical areas. To say that the Indians mainly centred on the north, presumably leaving the other vast areas of the vast city (East, West, South, central) dominated by or with a substantial presence of Europeans, is clearly FALSE. One source given for this statement is this tiny article: https://web.archive.org/web/20120112023055/http://www.laits.utexas.edu/solvyns-project/hardgraveportrait.html - in this short article I can find no reference to anything about any so-called "white town" nor any information about Calcutta's erstwhile racial demographics, nor anything relating to the 1850's! Instead it's about an artist that drew some nice drawings of city life between 1791-1804. The second source given was a book "Calcutta through 300 years: Changing visions, lasting images" - which I admit I haven't read, but it appears to be a coffee table picture book, with postcard and artists impressions of the city over a period of a few centuries, a glossy unofficial souvenir book published to mark the city's 300th anniversary (1990), very nice I'm sure, but not really an academic source I think.
