Excerpt from The Urdu Teacher Acquiring a knowledge of a foreign language is beyond doubt a long and arduous study, but to the intelligent, observant student it ought to be at least one of the most interesting, for it cannot be denied that knowledge of any one lan guage means an intimate knowledge of the people speaking that language. Are there any more interesting peoples than your Aryan brethren of to-day, scions of that great and common ancestor who tn the dim unrecorded long ago strode as conquering hero where you now stand, as the, representatives of the greatest sovereign that ever held away over India What a vista is opened up when we think of what has happened between then and now You can take it that every Englishman speaking the Vernacular, forcibly reminds the Native of India of thatcommon origin, helps him to welcome as a blessing the return of the Elder Brother after his long sojourn in the West, and more than anything I know of, serves to foster respect on both sides. With all its faults, I hope my little work tl assist you in obtatutng a knowledge of this great Vernacular.

Book Description
Nur Jahan was one of the most powerful and influential women in Indian history. Born on a caravan traveling from Teheran to India, she became the last (eighteenth) wife of the Mughal emperor Jahangir and effectively took control of the government as he bowed to the effects of alcohol and opium. Her reign (1611-1627) marked the highpoint of the Mughal empire, in the course of which she made great contributions to the arts, religion, and the nascent trade with Europe. An intriguing, elegantly written account of Nur Jahan's life and times, this book not only revises the legends that portray her as a power-hungry and malicious woman, but also investigates the paths to power available to women in Islam and Hinduism providing a fascinating picture of life inside the mahal (harem).

Book Description
Wheeler Thackstons lively new translation ofThe Jahangirnama, co-published with the Freer/Arthur M. Sackler Gallery of the Smithsonian Institution, presents an engaging portrait of an intriguing emperor and his flourishing empire. The Emperor Jahangir is probably best know in the West as being the father of Shahjahan, who built the Taj Mahal. His reign was one of great prosperity, and his passion for art and nature encouraged a flowering that some say rivaled European art during the rule of the Medicis. In penning his memoirs, Jahangir followed a tradition begun by his great-grandfather, the Emperor Babur. Jahangirs memoirs, however, provide not only the history of his reign, but also his reflections on art, politics, and private details about his familyincluding the suicide of one of his wivesand selections of poetry written by members of his harem. One of Jahangirs stories describes his astonishment at witnessing the fall of a meteorite, an event that so amazed him that he ordered that a dagger be made from its metal. This book includes a selection of exquisite full-color paintings, drawings, and objects that specifically illustrate the passages they accompany--including a photograph of the Emperors treasured dagger. A lover of jewels, nature, hunting, drinking, and opiates, Jahangir carried the Mughal empire to artistic and political heights. Refreshingly candid and frank, this splendidly illustrated edition of Jahangirs memoirs is a thoroughly absorbing profile of an emperor and the zenith of his empire.
