The Book of Emperors: An Illustrated History of the Mughals

Just over five hundred years ago, a young boy sat in a garden, waiting for his story to unfold. His name was Babur, and he would soon establish an empire that would leave the world in awe.

For three centuries, Babur’s sons and grandsons, along with the women of their families—mothers, wives, sisters, and daughters—would wage wars, create art and music, savor the finest fruits, and both shape and be shaped by the land they came to call home.

History would remember them as the Mughals. The Book of Emperors brings their remarkable stories to life.
