Special Edition Empress: The Astonishing Reign of Nur Jahan with FREE PDF EDITION!

The Light of the World has returned. Nur Jahan Begum is the history of India. She was a Shia married to a Sunni Muslim who was also half Hindu Rajput. Further, Nur Jahan is the only woman ruler among the great Mughals of India. Nur’s life history shows her dynamism and boldness. However, there is a very long history of the erasure of Nur Jahan’s power that Lal has brilliantly restored.When it came to hunting, Nur Jahan was a great tiger huntress with a master shot as depicted in a classic portrait that shows her tamping down the gunpowder in a musket. She designed gorgeous gardens and the tomb that became the model for the Taj Mahal itself. She was an accomplished soldier, planning the operation that rescued her husband from a kidnapping. Remnants of imperial orders issued by her, coins minted in her name, paintings that paid homage to her sovereignty and bravery are all evidence of the powerful figure Nur was.Renowned historian Ruby Lal uncovers the rich life and world of Nur Jahan, restoring her full splendor in the process. Lal has not only rescued this dazzling figure from patriarchal clichés of romance and intrigue, but has also given new insights into the lives of women and girls in the Mughal Empire. In this revisionist feminist biography, Nur Jahan finally receives her due in this deeply researched and evocative biography that awakens us to a fascinating history. This page-turning, eye-opening biography shatters our impressions of India and is an imperative, indispensable, and integral masterpiece that must be read.
