The author has delved deep into the history of Malwa which was one of the most notable provinces of India during the Hindu and an early Muslim period of our history, and its influence on Hindu culture was of an abiding character. And yet has up to now lacked a history worthy of its past. With immense labour he has added his intimate knowledge of the topography and genealogy of Malwa, which no other scholars can equal. The result is a study at once intensive, accurate and exhaustive. Moreover, he has depicted vividly in different chapters on the economic condition, social changes and culture of the province which is usually by others. This work was also one of the first which attempted to lay forth the history of this area from the time of Aurangazeb (1656-1707) up to the year 1765. It contains 7 chapters that chart the history of this province and 2 maps. This book is as readable as it is packed with learning and exemplary for other provincial histories of India in future.
