Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book reveals a series of letters collected from the regime of Sultan Tippoo. The letters principally revolve around topics of political sagacity as well as more mundane subjects such as finances and commercial trade. Additionally, it provides a glimpse into the character of the Sultan himself as both an intolerant bigot and a cruel and relentless enemy. The book draws from a register of letters documenting most of the Sultan's reign offering commentary and context where needed. The author of this book was employed under Lord Wellesley and makes extensive use of primary source material discovered after the fall of Seringapatam. While useful for its historical context alone, the book also offers insights into the Sultanâs character and the inner workings of his court. Particularly interesting are the window into the Sultan's bizarre and capricious nature. The book concludes by emphasizing the value of these letters in illuminating not only the reign of Tippoo Sultan but also the nature of power and governance more broadly.
