About this audiobook

James Fergusson (1808-86) became one of the most respected architectural historians of India. His 1876 account was revised in two volumes in 1910 by archaeologist James Burgess (1832-1916) and architect Richard Spiers (1838-1916). Lavishly illustrated, it remains of relevance to students of Indian and Asian architecture.
