Synopsis The story of the city of Delhi has a phoenix like characteristic and phenomenal magnetism. The book narrates the seven cities as Lalkot and Kila Rai Pithora, the first city of Delhi, moving on to Siri, Tughlaqabad, Jahanpanah, Firozabad, Dinpanah and Shahjahanabad. Buffeted by monarchic and dynastic changes, the city of Delhi still preserves glimpses of the past memories. The book is an attempt to revive those memories.
