The first volume details the birth of Akbar  his illustrious genealogy  and in particular the lives and exploits of his grandfather  Babur  and his father  Humayun  who laid the foundations of the Mughal Empire.  The Persian text  presented in the Naskh script  is based on a careful reassessment of the primary sources.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44985006981173,"sku":"ByrdShop_0674427750","price":50.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780674427754.jpg?v=1770843321","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-history-of-akbar-volume-1-murty-classical-library-of-india","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
