Resolving the confusion of the authorship attribution of a Bengali book

The present paper aims to determine whether the Bengali book Londoner Naksa ebong France Bhraman ( Wondrous Capers at London and Travelling in France ) was written by the geologist Pramathanath Bose (P.N. Bose). To find it out, two well-established style markers often used in authorship attribution studies; namely, function words and punctuation marks, are used here. The result shows that possibly this book was penned by the geologist P.N. Bose. As a corollary, it may also be added that this approach may be used in future authorship attribution studies involving Bengali writings.
