Babur-Nama
The book in two volumes is a translation of Babur Padshah's Autobiography, made from the original Turki text. It truly embodies the career of the founder of the Mughal empire in India. It has the rare distinction of being contemporary with the events it describes. Babur-Nama has the complete record of Babur's life (1493-1529), when Babur ascended the throne at the young age of eleven to September 1529 where he had established himself as a monarch.
