Hardcover. Zustand: New. This book is an exhaustively researched and documented guide, which examines in detail the causes and circumstances, which contributed towards the origin and growth of Shimla as the highest centre of the colonial authority, its morphology, demographic history, and its socio-economic linkages with the surrounding areas. The growth of the Shimla hill region is related to the geography of the area, and the polity and economy of the time.

This is an engaging account of the stay of Englishmen in Shimla.
