    The Book Of Emperors: An Illustrated History Of The Mughals

    0

    A little over five hundred years ago, a boy sat in a garden, waiting for his story to begin. His name was Babur, and he would soon found an empire that astonished the world.

    For more than three hundred years, Babur’s sons and grandsons, alongside their mothers, wives, sisters, and daughters, would wage wars, make art and music, eat a delicious fruit or two, and both shape and be shaped by the land they made their home.

    History would call them the Mughals. The Book of Emperors tells their stories.

    Fascinating Maharajas Of India

    0

    Long, long ago, the vast Indian subcontinent was alive with powerful kingdoms and adventurous maharajas. They expanded with fervour and ruled with aplomb. They lived extravagant lives yet protected their turfs. They introduced reforms and uplifted their people. And despite their many quirks, they laid the foundation for the progress and development of modern India.

    • How did the Travancore maharajas promote education?
    • When did the Mysore maharajas begin celebrating Dasara with such pomp?
    • How unique was the Junagadh nawab’s love for his dogs?

    Discover the answers to these questions and more in this gorgeously illustrated book that chronicles twenty-five such exciting Indian kingdoms―from their origin to when they became princely states under the British to finally merging with the Indian Union at the time of Independence and becoming the backbone of a brand-new nation.

  • The Henna Start-Up

    The Henna Start-Up

    0

    Abir Maqsood is angry.

    She has things to do: a career to carve, money to earn, and, in the small stuff, a dining table to fix. But there are many obstacles in the way: lack of money, her parents’ over-protective attitude, and a most annoying distraction in class called Arsalan.

    When her mother is not paid her dues for her henna service, Abir resolves to help her by creating an app to support her business. Her college is also running a program for student start-ups, so things look most fortuitous. But the path to getting funding is littered with more thorns than roses.

    As Abir navigates through college, friendships and social pressures with determination, will she find the freedom that she is truly looking for?
