Building With India is a book written by Daniel Johnson Fleming and first published in 1922. The book is a comprehensive guide to the architecture and construction techniques used in India during the early 20th century. It covers a wide range of topics, including the history of Indian architecture, the materials used in construction, and the various styles of buildings found in different regions of the country.Fleming's book provides a detailed examination of the challenges faced by builders in India, including the extreme heat and humidity, the prevalence of earthquakes and other natural disasters, and the need to adapt to local customs and traditions. He also explores the role of British architects and engineers in shaping Indian architecture, as well as the influence of Indian culture on Western design.The book is illustrated with numerous photographs and drawings, providing readers with a visual representation of the buildings and techniques discussed in the text. It is a valuable resource for architects, builders, and anyone interested in the history and culture of India.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
