“... the present book does not aim at giving a detailed and continuous history of the city and its environs. It only aims at presenting to the general public in general and tourists from the distant lands in particular a readable description of the historical buildings with a critical study and architectural appreciation. However, a short history and pen sketches of the rulers connected with the buildings are given to satisfy the curiosity of the sight-seers.” PREFACE
