Description
Although writing is a solitary task, luckily there are people with whom I can share my ideas, my finds and my enthusiasm. A number of friends (and some email acquaintances) have been helpful, particularly in finding images, which I did not have time to search for. I would like to thank the following: Nawab Jafar Mir Abdullah, an old friend, who has done much to keep the spirit of nawabi Lucknow alive, not least with his theatrical interpretations of the king.
