The book traces the history and character of mutual trade relations between Assam and Bhutan since the centuries long Ahom rule. It reveals that after 1865, during the colonial rule, Assam's local industry and crafts suffered due to unhealthy practices of British companies to promote their foreign made goods.
It discusses the strategic importance of the several Duars - the only gateways, travel, trade, social and political relations and the socio-economic impact.
