The volume is a major contribution to our understanding of Mughal gardens. The authors demonstrate that, though gardens are protean in meaning and subject to change in form, they are extraordinarily revealing of the Mughal ethos. (MESA Bulletin) -- These essays form a superb guide to the Mughal garden, its form, history and meaning. The depth of each author's expertise permeates every page, yet even the general reader will have no difficulty grasping the lucidly presented discussion of Mughal gardens. Any scholar of gardens or the Mughals must read this book. (Bulletin of the School of Oriental And African Studies)
