The Muhammadan Architecture Of Ahmadabad Volume In 2 Parts

About the book:- The volumes of the Muhammadan Architecture of Ahmadabad took account of the principle Muhammadan buildings erected there from the foundation of the city in A.D. 1412 to about 1520. There remained, however, several structures belonging to the latter portion of that period that were excluded from want of space, and these are taken up in the present volume. The ornamental details are so beautiful and interesting that it may be regretted that several of them are not reproduced to larger scales; but financial considerations interposed in this, in the arrangement of some of the details, and in the reproducing of more of the illustrative photographs made for the survey. These accounts or notes are based on the returns prepared for the Collector in 1886 by the Deputy-Collector, Mr. J.F. Fernandez, supplemented by personal observation and from the Lists of Remains prepared in 1884-5.
