The second volume of Shahjahanabad, the final instalment in the Where Stones Speak series, traces the grander and more expansive arc of Shahjahanabad's story. From the imperial sweep of Chandni Chowk and the intimate lanes and mohallas of the walled city, Rana Safvi moves beyond the walls to the Ridge, Raisina and Kashmiri Darwaza, closing with the Mughal court's festivals and celebrations. Where Volume 1 captured the city as it was built and lived in, this volume bears witness to how it was celebrated and transformed.
