Thanks for stopping by.<br /><br />For architectural history and peoples' character sketches, I refer contemporaneous literature - Akbarnama, Tuzukh-i-Babri, Bernier's Travels and the like.<br /><br />Modern history books like V.D. Mahajan, Satish Chandra, H.C. Fanshawe and James Fergusson too help. Also, barring the occasional mistake, ASI/INTACH guides are great for architectural overview and chronology.<br /><br />Regards<br />Pixelated Memorieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05756787609244020282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4420068855113295028.post-25257974222277455122016-03-08T14:30:11.902+05:302016-03-08T14:30:11.902+05:30Loved your post..Intend to go through more of them...Loved your post..Intend to go through more of them..whats the research material you use? very detailed and informative posts..Sangita Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01045176175120388294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4420068855113295028.post-2604501463084234922014-09-09T11:02:58.203+05:302014-09-09T11:02:58.203+05:30Rakesh Sir thanks for going through this post.

Like your father, I too had an impression about Rahim that he must be a poor man and begging for living.. and what not.. believe me I cross checked with my wife what does she thinks about Rahim and she had no different thoughts about him.. Thanks for making us aware of facts, atleast my son wont have such an opinion about him, who will soon be reading his Dohe's ..thanks for such an effort.

I'm glad I still have something up ...Hey Shrey,<br />I'm glad I still have something up my sleeve to amaze you..my Hindi teacher never told me anything about Rahim's life as a general-courtier, & I was in one of the best schools in my city. That's the reason why I decided to enlighten the readers & those who like to quote Rahim about his history.<br />I have been experimenting with the writing style for quite a few posts now Shrey, shall try to make them more informative, add more photographs. Lets hope this style works.<br />Keep visiting & keep commenting!!Pixelated Memorieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05756787609244020282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4420068855113295028.post-23722895305826964822013-07-18T23:46:46.817+05:302013-07-18T23:46:46.817+05:30A very detailed post, but long none the less.

I think it would be more beneficial for you as well as the readers if it were seperated into tow different posts!<br />Also, i was aware of most of the facts you stated about his life, partly due to our HIndi teacher telling us stories about him. The fact that he was Akbar's son as well as that he died a poor man were surprising to say the least!<br />Shreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00937993794295767292noreply@blogger.com
