A searchable, re-typeset edition of Fiona Ross, "The Evolution of the Printed Bengali Character from 1778 to 1978" (Ph.D., SOAS, 1988), transcribed from the 431-leaf ProQuest scan. All 431 pages done; 178 plates and 410 inline type specimens cut from the scan; 51 errata. Tracked: the transcription (src/pages), the preamble and its typographic decisions, the cut images (plates/ — not reliably regenerable, the crop specs for the inline cuts were never scripted), tools, and the four working documents. Not tracked: the built PDF, which `make` remakes from src/ and plates/; the ProQuest scan under source/, which is third-party and needed only by `make prep` and `make plate`; scans/ and work/, both regenerable.
