From the turbulent military campaigns of the eighteenth century to the bureaucratic modernisation of the twentieth, the Kayasths saved the rulers of Hyderabad state in a variety of ways, and they employed diverse strategies to conserve family resources. Dr. Leonard traces the structural relationships over time, combining genealogical reconstructions with extensive research in private and official archives.
