Dara Shukoh was the heir-apparent to the Mughal throne in 1659, when he was executed by his brother Aurangzeb. Today Dara is lionized in South Asia, while Aurangzeb, who presided over the beginnings of imperial disintegration, is scorned. Supriya Gandhi’s nuanced biography asks whether the story really would have been different with Dara in power. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

There is a very good H-Net essay on the book which covers all I had to say about it, so I won't add much more. I'll only say that the writing style is extremely accessible, even to non-historians or those unfamiliar with the background, and that the most interesting point she makes is that given her account of Dara Shukoh's life, it is not by any means certain that he would have been very different from Aurangzeb as an emperor.
