This book is based on that chapter in the history of the Mehrangarh Fort or Jodhpurgarh as it was known in the 18th century when it came under siege. Mehrangarh is the largest fort in Rajasthan and was built in 1459 and is situated on a rock formation that is over two million years old and over 400 feet above the city.
