"This is a succinct, readable, and comprehensible summary of one of
the most important eras in India's history....It should become the
major text on Mughal history." Choice
'This excellent monograph sets for itself the goal of providing a
one-volume synthesis accessible to the non-specialist, of a period
in India's past which has had an enduring impact and influence on
the region's political, economic and cultural history.' The Journal
of Imperial and Commonwealth History
"Richards's volume fills an important gap. Until now there has been
no basic narrative, political history of the Mughal
empire....Richards's approach has the virtue of integrating a great
deal of the newest research into a familiar framework....His clear
and concise synthesis of the new scholarship on the Mughal empire
in India provides a context for the student and a point of
departure for all subsequent scholarly work in the field." American
Historical Review
