The Mughal rule marked to the last Golden age of India, epitomized by the peerless grandeur and beauty of the Taj Mahal. Complex and talented, the Mughals built a great empire, raising the elite urban culture of India to its pinnacle. Yet the end of the Mughal rule would be as chaotic and ruinous as its dramatic rise. This book is an excellent introduction to this. And the sometimes forgotten moment of multicultural assimilation it represented. From Babur, born in 1483, to Aurangzeb, who died in 1707, Eraly gives a richly readable account of one of the most crucial and misrepresented periods of Indian history. - Back cover.
