Book Description
When a path is forged in blood, it is hard to find peace. The son of a penniless refugee from Lahore, Arjun Bhatia has worked his way up from being an arms smuggler in the badlands of Uttar Pradesh to the most influential power-broker in Delhi. But when the shadows of the past – of a friend he has lost forever and of a woman he can never be with – finally catch up to him, Arjun finds himself fighting the biggest battle of his life. For at stake is not just his iron hold over the government, but something even greater – his family...and his soul. Spanning five decades and two generations, Sultan of Delhi: Ascension is an explosive saga of ambition, greed, love and passion.

Book Description
This book provides an integrated view of the Delhi Sultanate government from 1206 to 1526. It is divided into two parts. The first part deals with the political events and the dynastic history of the Sultans and the second part with the administration, different land issues, social life including two major religious movements and other cultural aspects including architecture and sculpture. The growth of the city of Delhi has been shown here perhaps for the first time. Most of the books on Delhi Sultanate mainly narrate the political events. Here other aspects have been included to show the real character of the Sultanate. It may be mentioned that the English officials from the end of the eighteenth Century had termed the medieval period of India as a ‘dark age’ – a statement that has been accepted by several Indian writers. It is to negate this view that an integrated narrative has been provided here.

Book Description
Illustrations: 2 Maps Description: The Administration of the Sultanate of Dehli by Ishtiaq Husain Qureshi is a comprehensive work on this most important period of Indian history. It covers the period between A.D. 1206, when Qutb-ud-din Aibak ascended the throne, and A.D. 1555, when the last of the Surs, Sikandar Shah, was overthrown and Humayun, the Mughal emperor, re-established himself at Delhi. Unlike the other works on the subject, the Surs have been included under the purview of the work since the rule of the Surs was, technically, a ministration of the state. In fact, Sher Shah, the founder of the Sur dynasty, started anew the administrative machinery of the Sultanate. In this comprehensive study, the primary sources, the numismatic and epigraphic evidence and the relevant works on law, politics and statecraft have been fully utilized. In eleven chapters, details about the sovereign, the royal household, the ministers, finance, the army, justice and police, religious affairs, education and public works, provincial and local government and the spirit of the government have been discussed. A detailed bibliography with certain topics relevant to the subject make this book a work of permanent value to the students and the scholars alike.

Book Description
Wonderfully well researched . . . engrossing, enlightening' The Hindu The Delhi Sultanate period (1206-1526) is commonly portrayed as an age of chaos and violence-of plundering kings, turbulent dynasties, and the aggressive imposition of Islam on India. But it was also the era that saw the creation of a pan-Indian empire, on the foundations of which the Mughals and the British later built their own Indian empires. The encounter between Islam and Hinduism also transformed, among other things, India's architecture, literature, music and food. Abraham Eraly brings this fascinating period vividly alive, combining erudition with powerful storytelling, and analysis with anecdote.
