Nur Jahan: Empress of Mughal India
Findly, Ellison Banks (Associate Professor of Religion and Area Studies, Associate Professor of Religion and Area Studies, Trinity College, Hartford, Connecticut)
Nur Jahan was one of the most powerful and influential women in Indian history, and Ellison Findly's biography is an intriguing, elegantly written account of her life and times. Findly's work not only revises the legends that portray Nur Jahan as a power-hungry and malicious woman, but also investigates the paths to power available to women in Islam and Hinduism, providing a fascinating picture of life inside the `mahal' (harem).
