Reviews

" ... an important source of information for both historians and art historians and especially researchers working on medieval Indian history."--Landscape History, Vol 23, 2001 "This concise but eminently readable account of the investigation is accompanied by coloured photographs, a few reproductions chosen from Mughal miniatures, and an excellent folded plan of both gardens."--Curtis's Botanical Magazine 18, 4, 2001
