Book deals, extremely briefly, with the evolutinary process of Mughal Architecture, practically from Babur to Shah Jehan (1526 to 1658). Instead of being an exotic phenomenon, as it is largely misunderstood, Mughal Architecture, like the Gupta art, was deeply rooted in the soil and it grew and developed not only on indigenous forms and techniques, but also on its concepts, customs and beliefs. It was owing to the decisive participation of native source, in its development, that such a wonderful monument as the Taj Mahal could be built in India, and nowhere else. The land, the People and the Culture have made it what it is, which is why it is so diametrically different from any other art of Islam.
