The book narrates the fascinating story of the foundation and development of the architectural style of North and South India stretching from Kashmir to Kanyakumari and from coast to coast, highlighting their principal stages and substages. The book identifies the distinctive feature of the various temples in India and studies them against a background of their cultural and political development, the latter not inconsiderably conditioned by dynastic patronage. The book in two volumes of text and plates embodies the latest researches on Indian temples and will be useful not only to the scholar and serious student but also to the lay reader.
