In favour of Govinddevji : historical documents relating to a deity of Vrindaban and eastern Rajasthan / Monika Horstmann in collaboration with Heike Bill. - New Delhi : Indira Gandhi National Centre for the Arts in association with Manohar Publishers & Distributors, 1999.
"Sri Govinddevji, a family deity of Amber's Kachavaha dynasty, now dwells in Jaipur, along with his consort Radha. His first appearance, however, he made in Vrindaban where he came to reside in the great temple built for him by Raja Mansingh and consecrated in 1590. The documents published in this book span more than three and a half centuries. In their own style which is that of fiscal and other official papers, they tell of the fortunes of Govinddevji. Apart from religious policy, they also permit insight into the administrative and diplomatic usage of the Kachavaha chancery, an aspect which the author has attempted to highlight."--
