Final Verdict on Raiders from the North
A must read for anybody interested in reading about Mughal History… I rate it very good. It would be excellent, if the book didn’t get over so soon.
I have read this book about three years ago but the way you have interpret it, is quite whimsical.
After reading your review, I certainly want to read it again.
Well done. ?
I do not know anything about Mughal History. Im not really not into history and facts. But sometimes it is interesting to know such. Its very informative. Thank you for sharing.
Sounds like an interesting read. I love history, but I’m more into art history than political history! Good to know that the book also specifies about the strength of the opponents which is more often than not, just skipped! Thanks for the review. Will try to lay my hands on this book for a read!
Reading your review makes me want to research more about Mughal history. History is sometimes fascinating and learning new things everyday makes life even more meaningful. I get to appreciate places I am not very familiar with.
Not really a fan of these kinds of stories, but reading about Mughal history is quite fascinating! Thank you for the very detailed review 🙂
I have learned about the Murghal empire and the history of India when I visited Rajasthan. I was there for 21 days and every place I visited had references to the fascinating Murghal history. I think this book makes a very good read, especially that is based on an autobiography.
I never heard about this book before. To be honest I know nothing about the Mughal Dinasty. But it’s a good review and you piqued my curiosity. Regarding your rate, I will probably give it a try. Thank you for sharing this one!
Lovely review about the book! Mughal history is quite a fascinating and interesting subject to study, might I say. Maybe I’ll research more about it first on the internet, then I’ll delve into the books when I’m ready! Thanks for the suggestion! 🙂
What a coincidence? I often conduct story-telling sessions at the Mughal monuments in Delhi and all these tales form the bedrock of my business. Wow! This is crazy. I would also like you to read Jehangirnama, Humayunnama, Babur nama and Akbarnama to know more about Mughal history.
Thanks Swayam, I would love to read the books mentioned by you. But there are so many versions of these books available. Do not really know which one to pick up and begin. Would love to connect with you on email.
This might not be one of the books that I will pick in the next few days. I prefer books full of encouragement and self-help tips now, especially that I am going through a very rough phase in my life. I’ll probably read this book before I schedule a trip to India in the future. Thank you for sharing your review, I will note the title. I’d recommend it to my husband too because this is something that he likes to read.
Ooooh, I’ve never heard about the Mughal History but it sounds like a great read. Reading is not really a hobby of mine, yet I’m so much interested in this. Reading your review made me want to buy this book! Thank you so much for sharing! 🙂
Reading is one of my hobbies, but lately, I have been very busy. Can’t really find time reading books anymore. So, I am now more on watching movies if time permits.
Looks like this is an interesting read. I have no knowledge about the Mughal Empire, but my son does. He loves history and geography. Thank you for making a comprehensive book review. I hope to make one soon. I am more on movie reviews right now though.
