Gough compares accounts from various travelers and scholars, aiming to document and interpret these structures for a British audience. The work includes detailed illustrations, highlighting the grandeur and intricacy of Indian monuments. It reflects 18th-century European fascination with Eastern antiquities and contributes to early Indo-British archaeological scholarship.
