Everyone coming to the beautiful historic city of Delhi is fascinated by its wealth of cultural heritage - from the ordinary settlements to the imperial precincts. It is almost like a never-ending dialogue to know more about the cultural and architectural heritage of the city. The book gives the facets of a historical city, with its monuments and the legends connected with it. This is, however, not just another book on Delhi. It links the monuments, and many neighborhoods of the city, with events in history. Most of the contents are related to the medieval period, though one will find scattered references to the dim past peeping out of the crust of the latter-day events.
Author Biography
Ronald Vivian Smith, former News Editor of The Statesman, has been writing historical and other articles since 1958. Author of the Delhi that No-one Knows, Tales the Monuments Tell, Uncanny Tales and Jasmine Nights & The Taj, a romantic novel, he has also brought out three collections of his poems. Smith has also contributed special columns like Then & Now, Quaint Corner and Quaint Places to The Statesman and Down Memory Lane to The Hindu. He has also co-authored North India: The Christian Link with his father. Born in 1938, R.V. Smith's latest interest is films on Delhi's monuments and the walled city.
