The Seven Cities of Delhi by Gordon Risley Hearn is a richly detailed historical and architectural study of Delhi, one of the world’s most continuously inhabited capitals. Hearn explores the successive cities that rose and fell across the centuries—from the ancient settlements of the early Hindu dynasties to the great imperial capitals built by the Delhi Sultans and Mughal emperors. Each “city” is examined through its monuments, fortifications, mosques, palaces, and surviving ruins, which Hearn describes with keen observation and a deep appreciation for their artistic and cultural significance.
