Présentation de l'éditeur :
Mughal dynasty in India The original conception of such an empire was not A kbars own. His grandfather, Bbar, had conquered a great portion of I ndia, but during the five years which elapsed between the conquest and his death, Babar enjoyed but few opportunities of donning the robe of the administrator. By the rivals whom he had overthrown and by the children of the soil, Bbar was alike regarded as a conqueror, and as nothing more. A man of remarkable ability, who had spent all his life in arms, he was really an adventurer, though a brilliant adventurer, who, soaring above his contemporaries in genius, taught in the rough school of adversity, had beheld from his eyrie at Kbul the distracted condition l For the purposes of this sketch I have referred to the following authorities: Memoirs ofJB dbar, written by himself, and translated by eyden and Erskine; Erskine sJB afiar ancLH umdy n; The A in-i-JLJ cbarl (B lochmann stranslation); The History of I ndia, as told ly its own Historians, edited from the posthumous papers of Sir H. M. Elliot, K.G.B., by Professor Dowson; Bow s Ferishta; Elphinstone s History qf I ndia; Tod s Annals of Rajasfhan, and various other works.
