Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Memoirs of Zehir-Ed-Din Muhammed Babur, Emperor of Hindustan, Vol. 1 of 2: Written by Himself, in the Chaghatai Turki
Hence his Memoirs are no rough soldier's diary, full of marches and counter-marches they contain the personal impressions and acute re?ections of a cultivated man of the world, well read in Eastern literature, a close and curious observer, quick in perception, a discerning judge of persons, and a devoted lover of nature. The utter frankness of self-revelation, the unconscious portraiture of all his virtues and follies his obvious truthfulness and fine sense of honour give the Memoirs an authority which is equal to their charm.'
