”A detailed, faithful, yet very aesthetic account… a testimony to the wellsprings of the durability that is India, the Idea of India.” – Prof Harbans Mukhia ”A narrative that looks beyond the monument’s architecture... a multi-faceted cultural history of the Mughals.” – First Post “A treat animated with anecdotes and historical detail that often escapes specialists. Das has an eye for the obscure which is a delight to encounter. “– T C A Raghavan “Will interest different kinds of readers (including) those interested in Mughal social and cultural history.” - Swapna Liddle “There's much to commend in the book…written with sympathy and feeling.”- Anisha Shekhar Mukherji “Exactly what a book about a historical period ought to be. The subject has been cleverly arranged and set out in a lucid manner that helps to visualize the era graphically.” - Marryam H. Reshii “Das takes us on a journey not just of its physical spaces but culture and people and brings it to life” - Rana Safvi “Extremely entertaining and informative...Das finds interesting tidbits that bring to life the Mughals and their heyday.” – Madhulika Liddle
