《吉大港山区：生活在边境地区》是对位于孟加拉国东南部地区的图片式介绍，也是该地区的历史记述，这里是大约11个不同社群的家园。该书涵盖了100多年的时间，即从1860年到1970年，分为20个主题章节和一个结论部分，包含4幅地图以及400多张大多未发表过的照片。这本书为读者提供了一个外界鲜为人知的地区的图文记录。作者利用主要由殖民统治者（英国和巴基斯坦）、游客、人类学家、一些当地人和该地区精英的私人收藏所拍摄的照片，试图构建一部关于山区的另类历史，重点关注被统治者而非统治者，以及他们的生活、宗教、经济、交流方式和文化。
The Chittagong Hill Tracts: Living in a Borderland is a pictorial introduction to and also a historical account of the region lying in the southeastern part of Bangladesh, which is home to about eleven different communities. Spanning over a period of more than 100 years, i.e., from 1860-1970, the book is divided into twenty thematic chapters and a conclusion with four maps and more than 400 mostly unpublished photographs. The book provides its reader with a visual and written account of a region much unknown to the outside world. Using photographs mostly taken by the colonial administrators (both British and Pakistani), tourists, anthropologists, some locals, and private collections of the elites of the region the authors have attempted to construct an alternative history of the Hills focusing on the ruled instead of the rulers, their lives, religions, economies, modes of communications and cultures.
