Synopsis Tabakat-I-Nasiri is a general history of the Muhammadan Dynasties of Asia, including India from 810 A.D. to 1260 A.D. by Maulana Mirhaj-Ud-Din, Abu-'Umar-I-'Usman. This was translated from the original Persian manuscripts by Major H.G. Raverty and the book was first published in 1881 in the Bibliotheca Indica Series by the Asiatic Society of Bengal. This edition has been out of print for a long time and therefore the book is being reprinted by the Society. The text and the notes together may be considered as the repository of the 'œmost varied and often recondite historical material for the period between 810 to 1260 A.D.. This book, the text and notes together, will be found to be a very thesaurus of the most varied and often recondite historical material for the periods of which it treats, and many time-honoured historical errors have been pointed out and rectified. It wants but one thing to make it still more acceptable to the Student, and that is an Index. The Reviewers are tolerable sure to point this out for fear nobody else should see it.
