The Book of Emperors – An Illustrated History of the Mughals
A beautifully written and illustrated book, where each Mughal emperor is made human and complex. Their beliefs, desires, strengths, weaknesses, conflicts, and crises are described with compassion and honesty. The miniature-inspired illustrations bring the era to life, including the markets, hunts, arts and music of the times. Some of the lesser-known Mughals are also introduced, giving a sense of continuity and fleshing out the large scope of the era.
