O knihe
The truth is that Akbar was singularly sensitive to religious impressions of every kind, and that his new religion, the Din-i-Ilahi, or "divine faith," an eclectic pantheism, contained elements taken from very diverse creeds.

-from Chapter II: "Akbar's Reforms: The Divine Faith"
First published in 1906, this classic nine-volume history of the nation of India places it among the storied lands of antiquity, alongside Egypt, China, and Mesopotamia. Edited by American academic ABRAHAM VALENTINE WILLIAMS JACKSON (1862-1937), professor of Indo-Iranian languages at Columbia University, it offers a highly readable narrative of the Indian people and culture through to the time of its publication, when the nation was still part of the British Empire.
Volume IV, Part 2 of Mediæval India from the Mohammedan Conquest to the Reign of Akbar the Great, by British scholar STANLEY LANE-POOLE (1854-1931), features entertaining and enlightening treatments of:
. the united empire of Akbar the Great
. Akbar's reforms: the divine faith
. the great Moghul and European travellers
. Shah Jahan the Magnificent
. Aurangzib, the puritan emperor
. the fall of the Moghul empire
. and much more.
This beautiful replica of the 1906 first edition includes all the original illustrations.
