In this initial episode of Masala History podcast, we review Santi Kavuri Bauer's book on post-Mughal identity of Mughal architecture in India, published by Duke University Press in 2011. We discuss the book's treatment of British, nationalist, and capitalist interests that have affected and continue to make an impact on some of India's most glorious historical structures.

Special Note: We are just beginning this podcast journey and we ask you to bear with our initial sound quality hiccups. We are recording from different continents, over different time zones, with introductory podcast equipment, and less than optimal internet connectivity. But we have terrific content on our pods and will continue to work on our production quality. Hang in here with us and we promise very interesting content on South Asian history, culture, books, and more!
