This book is an attempt to preserve in memory some impressions of Mumbai's architectural beauty. It also seeks to correct the image of Mumbai in the minds of both outsiders and those who have lived there, encouraging them to think beyond the city's slums. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe book is intended to showcase Mumbai as a city worth seeing and savoring.
