More than mere shelters, these inns were centres of commerce, cultural exchange, and statecraft. Drawing on historical records, travellers' accounts, and architectural remains, the book reveals their striking designs-fortified gateways, vast courtyards, and arcaded chambers-and the lives they hosted: merchants, pilgrims, nobles, and common travellers. Illustrated with photographs and maps, this work opens a window into a forgotten world of movement, encounter, and exchange, offering both scholars and general readers a vivid portrait of Hindustan's vibrant karawansarais.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ravindra Kumar\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9371792418\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789371792417\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Primus Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/16\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.17lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.75d","brand":"Ravindra Kumar","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48874664296703,"sku":"9789371792417","price":35.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/karawansarais-in-hindustan-ravindra-kumar-9789371792417","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
