Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A History of the Maratha People, Vol. 2 A few words only are needed by way of introduction to the Second volume. The main authorities for the lives of Sambhaji and Rajaram are the Chitnis Bakhar, the Shedgavkar Bakhar, Khafi Khan, the Musulman works translated by Scott and known as Scott´s Deccan, Orme´s Fragments and the Parasnis Papers. I must also express my grateful acknowledgments to Professor Sarkar´s History of Aurangzeb, Vol. IV, and to Mr. Irvine´s translation of the Storia do Mogor. For my account of the Maratha wars against the Portuguese, my warmest thanks are due to the Goa Government, who with admirable generosity and kindness sent me a quantity of specially chosen books and papers on the subject. The authorities for the reign of Shahu are the Chitnis Bakhar, the Peshwa and Shedgavkar Bakhars, the Siyar-ul-Mutakherin, the Parasnis Papers, Malleson´s History of the French in India, Orme, and, above all, Mr. Sardesai´s Riyasat, Vol. III. The merits of this latter book are so great, its learning so profound, its style so clear, that I can only compare it with Voltaire´s Siecle de Louis XIV. Mr. Sardesai´s kindness, moreover, was equal to his erudition. Hearing that I was engaged in writing the present work, he placed at my disposal the proof sheets of his unpublished third volume. I can only say that words fail me when I try to express my appreciation of his noble disinterestedness. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
