Havelis of Rajasthan explores the origin and development of traditional courtyard houses, or havelis, in the desert state of Rajasthan -- delineating their basic form, constituent parts and functions. The book also describes the variations in Jaipur, Jaisalmer, Shekhawati, Udaipur, Kota and Bundi as well as Bikaner and Jodhpur. Apart from the builders and techniques used, the book includes information on a variety of decorative details, ranging from plaster and paintwork in Shekhawati, through stucco to Jaisalmeri stone carving. Tracing the historic developments in the 19th century, which resulted in an explosion of fine haveli buildings -- the principal patrons of which were the Bania and Rajput communities -- Havelis of Rajasthan follows the decline and division of the Rajasthani haveli during the 20th century.
