Written in 1913, Ernest Binfield Havell's Indian Architecture presents a revolutionary perspective that views the history of building in India as a living expression of national thought rather than a dry list of styles. Havell argues that the true "Indianness" of the country's monuments-from the early Hindu temples to the grand Mughal masterpieces like the Taj Mahal-is the result of a continuous indigenous craftsmanship tradition rather than foreign Saracenic or Persian influence. This book acts as both a rigorous historical survey of major sites like Agra and Bijapur and a critical plea for the preservation of Indian handicraft against modern departmentalized construction methods
