This work by Stanley Lane-Poole, British archaeologist, and orientalist, was originally published in 1908. It is an historical work on the sixth Mughal Emperor, Aurangzeb, who ruled over most of the Indian subcontinent for 49 years, from 1658 until his death in 1707, at the age of 88. It includes chapters on ‘The Heritage of Akbar’, ‘The Hindus’, ‘The Fall of Golkonda’, ‘The Ruin of Aurangzeb’, and much more, and is a fantastic read for anyone with an interest in the history of the 17th century. To compliment the republication of this work, a brand new introductory biography of the author has been added.
