About the Book
This volume offers a comprehensive study of Jaisalmer, the desert district of western Rajasthan, bordering Pakistan. Known as the Golden City in the Desert, Jaisalmer is celebrated for its iconic fort and palaces, yet the city’s story extends far beyond these popular landmarks. The book juxtaposes the history, culture, occupations, and lifestyles of its people, capturing the spirit of resilience in a challenging desert environment. It traces Jaisalmer’s past glory, periods of decline, and the renewed significance it has gained through centuries of cultural and socio-economic developments. A valuable resource for readers interested in geography, history, and cultural heritage, this work reveals the layered identity of one of India’s most fascinating desert cities.
