Lucknow, under the rule of its idiosyncratic nawabs, was a heady mixture of flourishing art, literature, architecture, sport and a famously cultured lifestyle. The Life and Times of the Nawabs of Lucknow depicts the lives, histories and cultures of Lucknow's infamous nawabs through more than a hundred pithy and colourful anecdotes, all of which are replete with wily prime ministers, powerful begums, eccentric chefs, accompanied by beautiful illustrations. The Life and Times is a tribute to the many nawabs who all played a crucial role in giving the city of Lucknow its distinctive history and culture.

A book leaves our collection of over seven million titles and begins a new chapter every two seconds, enabling more goods to be reused. - Ziffit: Through Ziffit, we buy. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others. By sharing the technology that has grown World of Books Group into the business it is today, we?re helping charities increase revenue and reduce waste through re-commerce.
