Sikh History from Persian Sources: Translations of Major Texts

by J.S. Grewal, Irfan Habib

This volume presents translations of all major Persian sources of Sikh history up to 1765, when Sikh power was established over the Punjab. The sources offer details that are not otherwise available, and richly supplement the information preserved in the Punjabi (Gurmukhi) traditions. Most of the Persian texts translated here have not been available in English until now.
