520			_aThis book is about wars fought in India from Alexander invasion to Mughal and Maratha period by a highly qualified and renowned scholar. It gives detailed and in-depth analysis of their military systems, their strategies, armaments, logistics, control and command. Much is made of the strategic culture of India. Here is a book which examines and analyses the roots of India strategic culture and its evolution. Hence it is of greatest importance for defence studies and of course historians. About The Author : Sir Jadunath Sarkar CIE FRAS (1870 –1958) was a prominent Indian historian and a specialist on the Mughal dynasty. He graduated in English from Presidency College, Calcutta. In 1892, he topped the Master of Arts examination, in English at Calcutta University and in 1897, he received the Premchand-Roychand Scholarship. Sarkar's works faded out of public memory, with the increasing advent of Marxist and postcolonial schools of historiography. Academically, Jos J. L. Gommans compares Sarkar's work with those of the Aligarh historians, noting that while the historians from the Aligarh worked mainly on the mansabdari system and gunpowder technology in the Mughal Empire, Jaudunath Sarkar was best remembered for his historical works, including: A History of Jaipur, Military History of India, A History of Aurangzib (in 5 volumes), Studies in Mughal India, and Mughal Administration.
