Mountains, rivers, valleys, forests around us has a history. Using this natural environment, humans built structures there. Maharashtra has a rich history. From Thane-Raigad district to Kolhapur and from Pune-nagar to Nagpur-Gadchiroli. Those buildings have historical as well as cultural references. The imprint of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj’s thoughts and actions is everywhere. What we often fail to do is to search for them and add context. That deficiency has been filled by Vikhuralya Itihas-Khuna a book written by history researcher Sadashiv Tetwilkar.
