A book about Bombay (and Mumbai) Heritage buildings with some good trivia and anecdotes. I learnt quite a bit about the city's past and present from this book. Also the people who built the city are covered very well. All of this interspersed with some beautiful drawings of some of the iconic buildings of Bombay. A beautifully illustrated book with good information.
Absolutely beautiful each page. And some really interesting historical facts about the favourite city. A must if you love Bombay and love architecture.
