Answers
Answer:
The Delhi Sultanate
A Political and Military History
The Delhi Sultanate was the first Islamic state to be established in India. In
a broad-ranging and accessible narrative, Peter Jackson traces the history of
the Sultanate from its foundation in 1210 to its demise in around 1400
following the sack of Delhi by the Central Asian conqueror, Temur
(Tamerlane). During the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, the Sultanate
was the principal bastion of Islam in the subcontinent. While the book
focuses on military and political affairs, tracing the Sultanate’s expansion,
its resistance to formidable Mongol invasions from the northwest and the
administrative developments that underpinned these exploits, it also explores
the Sultans’ relations with their non-Muslim subjects. As a comprehensive
treatment of the political history of this period, the book will make a
significant contribution to the literature on medieval Indo-Muslim history.
Students of Islamic and South Asian history, and those with a general
interest in the region, will find it a valuable resource.
