He was also a man of perceptive intelligence, an ambitious prince and a successful emperor, and a highly gifted writer.The fourth Mughal emperor Jahangir is most often defined by his relationships: son of Akbar, father of Shahjahan, husband of Nurjahan: though he is one of the most fascinating and undervalued rulers of India. In this compelling work of popular history, Parvati Sharma presents him for the first time as a canny ruler, a keen observer of both human society and the world of nature, and a refined aesthete with wide-ranging tastes.
