Myth of Mughal Glory: A History of Blood, Betrayal & Vice

This provocative and deeply researched book challenges the mainstream narrative, exposing the violent conquests, religious orthodoxy, and rigid imperial control that lay beneath the surface. It explores the compulsions of Babur that forced him out of Uzbekistan, the failures of Humayun, the sexual obsession of Akbar, the addictions of Jehangir, the depravity of Shah Jahan and the brutality and suppression of Aurangzeb. It reveals how political calculation often masqueraded as tolerance, and how dynastic ambition came at great human cost.

Sweeping in scope yet razor-sharp in focus, The Myth of Mughal Glory invites readers to question what they've been taught-and consider what history looks like when told without the rose-tinted lens of empire
