Description
This is a spellbinding account of the first forgotten half of the English encounter with India providing a fascinating history of the Mughal Empire. Before the East India Company and before the British Empire, England was a pariah state and, seeking better fortunes, 16th and 17th century merchants, pilgrims and outcasts ventured to the kingdom of the mighty Mughals. Drawing on rich, original sources, Lubaaba Al-Azami traces the origins of a relationship between two nations - one outsider and one superpower - whose cultures remain inextricably linked to this day.
