New Delhi was intended to impress and to encapsulate the values of the British Empire, in other words to project 'soft' power. This book aims to provide a rounded picture of the new city, not just in terms of the architecture but of the people who designed and built it and those who lived there.The book focuses on: - the residential buildings and their gardens - the 'hard' power of the Indian Army's military 'cantonment' - the first inhabitants: architects, Viceroys, British and Indian administrators, soldiers, Indian domestic staff and Indian PrincesThe book is illustrated with numerous photographs, maps and diagrams.All sales proceeds will be donated to Asha, a charity which aims to transform the lives of slum dwellers in present day Delhi.
