Produktbeschreibung
Originally published in 1931, and translated from French into English by Homer White and Richard Glaenzer, this book covers the history of the first Timurid ruler of India, Zahir-ud-Din Muhammad Babur (r.1504-1530). It discusses the adventures and romantic life of the first Mughal emperor, his transition in life as a vagabond and spendthrift person, while an heir of a tiny principality in Ferghana (modern day Uzbekistan). It also touches upon his political failures and his miraculous appointment as the ruler of Kabul and Hindustan. The book covers the history of his life in Central Asia more comprehensively than the rest of his years at Hindustan, which he spent regaining his position back in his native land. This book concludes with his brief conquest of Hindustan before his untimely death in 1530 in Agra.
