From then on, the histories that we were taught, were the dates of the battles of the British in India. This is a tragedy, because the 150 years following the death of Aurangzeb were confusing, and yet transformative, as far as India is concerned.
There are valuable lessons to be learned from this period, about decline, transition, leadership, kingship, betrayal etc.
This is a period that is quite dramatic in its own right, and the cast of characters each played their own role in shaping the fortunes of, what was to become, India.
GS Cheema's book is a gem. This is the book to read, if you want to understand the history and lessons from this phase of Indian history.
