Sambhaji

by Sanjivani Kher, Dilip (Illustrator)

The entire Maratha kingdom was shocked when Sambhaji, the son of Shivaji, joined forces with the Mughal army, Shivaji's greatest foe. Sambhaji had a tough childhood. His father was too busy to look after him and his mother died when he was only two. The young Sambhaji's main support came from his grandmother. When she died, he was bereft of love and care. To make matters worse, his step-mother was campaigning to make her own son the next ruler, trying to poison Shivaji's mind against Sambhaji. This Amar Chitra Katha traces the events that led up to the coronation of this wise and just Maratha ruler.

Very elementary

There could have been some more events from the life. The narration was very flat. A list of places and chronological events at the end could have been very helpful and Informative

Good short read

Read this in brief when I was in school. Never got to know more about Shambaji and his reign. Love Amar Chitra Katha always.

Incomplete account of Sambhaji's life

Doesn't give an account of his entire life.. just the story of his coronation. There was more to his life than the coronation

Nice book for a quick read.

Short story on Shiva Ji's child. It was good & informational. Would love to reach more such books on Indian History.
