Description:

About ‘Jahangir: An Intimate Portrayal of a Great Mughal’: Jahangir was the fourth of the six Great Mughals - a great-grandson of Babur and grandfather of Aurangzeb - and the least known among them. The man who is most often defined by his relationships is here presented holistically as a canny ruler and conscientious administrator, an astute observer of human society and a connoisseur with wide-ranging interests. In this marvelous work of popular history, Parvati Sharma tells a compelling story of one of the most fascinating and undervalued rulers of India.

“An Intimate Portrait of a Great Mughal Jahangir, by Parvati Sharma, tells the story of a man more famously known for his relations to others. Not as Akbar’s son or Noor Jahan’s husband, the book tries to show him as Jahangir, the fourth Mughal emperor.” - The Statesman
