This book provides a detailed examination of the architectural antiquities of Western India, spanning a vast area from the northern frontiers of Sind to the river Savitri. The author's focus is primarily on the Buddhist period, exploring architectural remains, particularly stupas and early structural temples. The book is artistic and archaeological in nature, with the author explaining the motives and ideals behind the architectural designs of the region.
The text is divided into ten chapters that cover a range of subjects, including early architectural remains, Chalukyan temples, Solanki temples of Gujarat and Kathiawad, and buildings from the Muhammadan era. It also delves into architectural remains in Bijapur and Sind. The book is richly illustrated with fifty-seven art plates, offering a visual understanding of the ancient structures and contributing significantly to the study of Indian history, architecture, and archaeology. This work is a valuable resource for students and scholars in these fields.
