Great moghuls / Gascoigne, Bamber 1971  Book
Gascoigne, Bamber Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication New York, Harper & Row Publishers, 1971.
Description 264pBlue spine
Summary/Abstract Bamber Gascoigne's classic book tells of the most fascinating period of Indian history, the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, when the country was ruled by the extraordinarily talented dynasty of emperors known to European travellers as 'the Great Moghuls', for their almost limitless power and incomparable wealth. Here is a unique picture of the way of life of India's most flamboyant rulers - their sublime palaces, their passions, art, science and religion, and their sophisticated system of administration that stabilized the greater part of India and was later adopted by the British. Acclaimed by travellers and scholars alike, and beautifully illustrated in colour, this is a book for anyone with an interest in India's glorious past and achievements.

Mughal Empire / Richards, John F. 1993  Book
Richards, John F. Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Edition 2008
Publication India, Cambridge University Press, 1993.
Description xvi, 320pCream Spine
Series The New Cambridge History of India
Summary/Abstract The Mughal empire was one of the largest centralized states known in pre-modern world history founded in the early 1500s. By the end of the following century the Mughal emperor ruled almost the entire Indian subcontinent with a population of between 100 and 150 million. As well as military success, the Mughal emperors displayed immense wealth and the ceremonies, etiquette, music, poetry, and exquisitely executed paintings and objects of the imperial court fused together to create a distinctive aristocratic high culture. In this volume, Professor John Richards traces the history of this magnificent empire from its creation in 1526 to its breakup in 1720. He stresses the dynamic quality of Mughal territorial expansion, their institutional innovation in land revenue, coinage and military organization, ideological change, and the relationship between the emperors and Islam. He also analyzes institutions particular to the Mughal empire, such as the jagir system, and explores Mughal India's links with the early modern world. The Mughal Empire offers a concise and up-to-date synthesis of this spectacular period in the history of India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. It will be widely read by students and specialists of South Asian history and civilization and will be of interest to travellers wishing to know more about the background to the great Mughal monuments.
