Navo,
It's a good book to have if you like having a collection. By contemporary I meant that it was published just when 1st BNP govt came to power, and thus had a contemporary view of Mujib Zia and Ershad as the author was in BD throughout then. I personally got it off my uni library back in the day to read it. If I recall correctly it had a good account on Ershad that would be pertinent to your specific query.
Given a lot of historical revisionism that's been going on in the desh since the mid 90s, Novak's account might not be the most appetising in this day.
