| Summary: | The birth of Hyderabad is rooted in two legends. Over the five centuries following its founding in 1591, numerous new legends have come to be associated with the city, its rulers and people. The author has written extensively on the history and culture of Hyderabad. Here he presents a selection of some interesting legends and anecdotes relating to Hyderabad which, despite their traditional spice and flavour, are rooted in facts. The 'legendotes', as he calls them, form a chain of gripping 'snippets' from the history of Hyderabad. |
