History of the Mogul dynasty in India from its foundation by Tamerlane, in the year 1399, to the accession of Aurengzebe, in the year 1657
J.M. Richardson, 1826. First Edition. Cloth. Used - Very Good / No Jacket. Item #241979
First English language edition (U.K.) edition, translated from the French of Niccolao Manucci (1638–1720) and 'founded on the memoirs of Signore Manouchi, a Venetian'; according to title page of this volume. I would be guessing to assume 'Manouchi' is alternate spelling of 'Manucci', another Venetian. Nevertheless, otherwise I do not know who was this 'Manouchi'. Also it is worth noting, according to my imperfect 'research' on the subject using the internet, there is no published edition of this History of the Mogul Dynasty. Library rebind in black cloth covered boards with gold lettering along spine. Marbled end papers yellow at margins. Bookplate for Metropolitan Club Library affixed front pastedown. Library catalogue number inked on spine. Top textblock edge darkened by dust staining. Sound binding. Mild foxing on internal pages. Overall in very good condition. Stamped on the bottom of last page with '65'. Once again I would be guessing to say what this indicates. (324 pages)
