The decennial census was conducted using household schedules that documented the name, age, sex, religion, and caste of every individual, making it an exceptionally rich source of information about the island's inhabitants. The author meticulously examines these schedules to reveal the demographic shifts and social conditions of the time. The book delves into topics such as population density, housing conditions, religious diversity, and the impact of the plague epidemic.

Through a meticulous examination of historical records, this book offers a comprehensive understanding of the urban landscape and social dynamics of Bombay during a transformative period in its history.
