Description
This antiquarian volume contains a detailed and extensive exploration of medieval India. Compiled from contemporary sources, extracts from Arabic and Persian annals, and from accounts of contemporary European travellers, this fascinating volume was designed to 'bring to life' some of the chief events and rulers of medieval India. This fantastic book is highly recommended for readers with an interest in Indian history, and it is not to be missed by the discerning collector. Contents include: "Defeat of Jaipal", "Invasion of Hindustan", "Sacking of Somnat", "Amir Mas'ud has a Drinking Party", "Battles of Tarain", "Capture of Benares", "Conquest of Nudiya", "Sultan Raziya, Daughter of Altamish", "King Balban", "Policy of 'Ala-ad-din", "Chapters of Muhammad ibn Taghlak", etcetera. Many vintage texts such as this, especially those dating back to the 1900s and before, are increasingly hard to come by and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this book now in an affordable, modern, high quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
