It was very useful book as regards to the history of Delhi and its immediate neighboring provinces during the twilight of Mughal power in India. not many books now-a-days do that, they simply skip Delhi in favor of other parts of India during that time frame, and specifically the French and British struggles in the Carnatic and Bengal. This book truly delivers the history of the Mughal emperors as it should, respecting its title, without omitting any factors that had a direct influence on Delhi.
However, it would have been better had the author also given some more information regarding the imperial princes, or the immediate family of the emperor, as its predecessor book The Later Mughals, by William Irvine, has given. Still, overall the book was quite useful and well written, and it does not bore because the narrative is well connected throughout the passages.
