• Summary:This guidebook is illustrated with splendid, newly commissioned photographs by Surendra Kumar. It is the first such publication to describe the vestiges in the title, which are arranged according to itineraries to encourage citizens of Mumbai and Pune, as well as visitors to these cities and the towns of the Konkan, to discover this often overlooked aspect of local history. A handy reference to the Jewish presence in Maharashtra, the volume addresses this significant aspect of Deccani socio-cultural history.--Deccan Heritage Foundation website.
