Mosque Architecture in Bangladesh by architect Dr Abu Sayeed M Ahmed features a thorough research and insight on the development of designs of mosques in Bangladesh through the ages. The first chapter of the book offers a comprehensive thought on the revolution and influence of mosque architecture in Bangladesh. The following chapter titled “Catalogue” is an attempt to compile the representations of these mosques, classified in three phases — Early Islamic, Mughal and Colonial. The physical form of thirty selected mosques is analysed and illustrated with plans, elevations and photographs. Images used in the book are by Syed Zakir Hossain. The book can be of great help to architecture and history enthusiasts.
