Beskrivelse
The Mughal Empire began in India in the year 1526. For 300 years, the dynasty of the Mughal kings flourished, creating incomparable wealth and seeing the growth of magnificent art and architecture. Their tumultuous reign is now brought to life in these stories adapted from the Amar Chitra Katha comics.
Babur, who began life in faraway Ferghana, came to India in search of a kingdom and glory. He laid the foundations of a mighty empire. The scholarly Humayun, who faced incessant revolts and had to flee his own kingdom for a few years. His son, the great Akbar, united a large empire and thought deeply about religion and philosophy. Jahangir, with his untold wealth and his passion for his queen Nur Jahan, a flamboyant ruler herself. Shah Jahan, who took Mughal art to its zenith with the building of the Taj Mahal. And the tragic and cruel fate that befell Dara Shukoh at the hands of his brother Aurangzeb.
In Empires of India: The Mughals, the lives of these unforgettable rulers from Indian history come alive as they are retold simply and lucidly for young readers.
