Hardcover. Condición: New. 1st Edition. Rajasthan continues to fascinate the world for many reasons. Some of the more obvious ones include its colours, its music and dance, its venerable history, its forts, fortifications, palaces, step-wells and old towns and its rich textile tradition. Rajasthan also brings to mind the vast tracts of golden desert to its north-west and west, juxtaposed by the scattered green and dust-mantle clad valleys, plains and hills of its south-east and east, with their rivers and rivulets and lakes. Rajasthan is also famed for its rich oral and written traditions, drawn from mythology and religious tales as much as from the history of the area. The oral and written traditions are sometimes coloured by the blood of battles, sometimes romantic with the folk-remembered tales of Moomal, Dhola and Maru, Nihal-de, tales of Moomal, Dhola and Maru, Nihal-de, and often based on real-life tales of sacrifice and duty of valourous men and women like Maharana Pratap, Prithviraj Chauhan, Jaimal, Patta, Gora, Badal, Panna-dhai, Achaldas Khinchi, Durgadas Rathore and countless ordinary citizens. Dipping into this rich heritage, this book brings to its readers a collection of short stories from Rajasthan. These are based on real people and events, but are somewhat fictionalised in the narration. The nine Rajasthani tales in this book are but a fraction of the amazing legacy of Rajasthan.…

Hardcover. Condición: New. "In sixteenth-century India, as the Mughal Empire reached its height under Akbar, one Rajput prince stood at the centre of its battles and politics Raja Man Singh of Amber. Both a loyal commander and Akbar's beloved 'farzand' (son), Man Singh bridged two worlds: the proud martial traditions of the Rajputs and the expanding ambitions of the Mughals. From the banks of the Indus to the fields of Haldighati, from Kabul's mountain passes to Bengal's swamps, Man Singh's career was a relentless sequence of campaigns, alliances, and acts of statesmanship that secured and expanded an empire. Yet his story is not confined to the battlefield. It is also the tale of a builder and patron, who commissioned celebrated temples in Vrindavan and Varanasi, and transformed Amber into a thriving seat of art and architecture. At the heart of this biography lies his complex bond with Akbar marked by loyalty, kinship, and political calculation. Through Man Singh's life, we see the larger currents of the age: the alliances and rivalries of Rajput states, the consolidation of Mughal power, and the cultural synthesis that defined the era. Drawing on chronicles, bardic traditions, and architectural evidence, The Emperor's General a portrait of an age told through the life of an indispensable general a definitive narrative that restores Man Singh to his rightful place as a titan of Indian history.".…
