From time immemorial, the Indian sub-continent had constantly been attracting the avaricious attention of the invaders for its rich culture and wealth. With the advent of Islam Muslim invaders had their field day when they invaded India. With new hitherto unheard of warfare, Hindu kings fell like nine pins. Muslim rulers' might and their penchant for Islam had started changing the religious contours of India. For the first time Indians had to subserve the interests of an alien ruler whose faith was also alien to them. Starting from Muhammad bin Qasim, Mahmud of Ghazni, Ghoriand Delhi Sultanates down to the Mughals Babur, Humayun, Akbar, Jahangir, Shahjahan and Aurangzeb one can fine a detailed presentation of their rules in this work. Their idiosyncrasies, megalomaniac tendencies, amorous behaviours, administrative capabilities innovative approaches, utter callousness and brutality are detailed in this book. The book presents both the darker and brighter side of the rulers and the readers can be the judges.
