Excerpt from The Adventures of Akbar This book is written for all little lads and lasses, but especially for the former, since it is the true - quite true - story of a little lad who lived to be, perhaps, the greatest king this world has ever seen. It is a strange, wild tale this of the adventures of Prince Akbar among the snowy mountains between Kandahar and Kabul, and though the names may be a bit of a puzzle at first, as they will have to be learned by and bye in geography and history lessons, it might be as well to get familiar with them in a story-book; though, indeed, as everybody in it except Roy the Rajput, Meroo the cook boy; Tumbu, the dog; and Down, the cat (and these four may have been true, you know, though they have not been remembered) really lived, I don't know whether this book oughtn't to be considered real history, and therefore A Lesson Book Anyhow, I hope you won't find it dull.

Excerpt from The Emperor Akbar, Vol. 2: A Contribution Towards the History of India in the 16th Century The Count of Noer devoted himself till death to his Emperor Akbar. It was not granted to him to subject the second volume to a complete elaboration. As I was entrusted by the Countess of N oer with the duty of carrying out the author's design, his papers were made over to me, and also valuable pencil-notes which had been made by him in the books of the Noer library. With this guidance I believe that I have carried out the intentions of the author as far as possible. Much space has been given to extracts from the sources, or original records. The use of them is one of the great charms of the book. They are new, and as yet have been little worked, and the translations are certainly defective. But it is to be hoped that one result of this attempt will be to stir up inquirers to undertake a new handling of the origins of our information about this great his.

With the exception of Tumbu the dog and Down the cat, the chief characters really lived and took part in the childhood adventures of little Prince Akbar, later a sixteenth century Indian emperor. Indian customs and manners are vividly portrayed. He was an odd fellow, all long limbs and broad smiles, who, when his time arrived, shambled forward, cast himself in lowliest reverence full length on the ground and blubbered out his delight--now that the princely baby could really eat--at being able to supply all sorts of toothsome stews full of onions and green ginger, to say nothing of watermelons and sugar cane. These things, strange to say, being to little Indian children very much what chocolate creams and toffee are to English ones. So far all had gone well, and now there only remained one more salute to be made. But little Adam, who was Head-nurse's own son, and who had hitherto been Baby Akbar's playmate, refused absolutely to do as he was bid. He was a short, sturdy boy of five, and nothing would induce him to go down on his knees and touch the ground with his forehead

Excerpt from Akbar, the Great Mogul: 1542-1605 Twenty-four years ago, when I was editing the Rambles and Recollections of Sir William Sleeman and was under the influence of that authors enthusiastic comment that 'Akbar has always appeared to me among sovereigns what Shakespeare was among poets', I recorded the opinion that 'the competent scholar who will undertake the exhaustive treatment of the life and reign of Akbar will be in possession of perhaps the finest great historical subject as yet unappropriated.' Since those words were printed in 1893 nobody has essayed to appropriate the subject. The hope that some day I might be able to take it up was always present to my mind, but other more urgent tasks prevented me from seriously attempting to realize my old half-formed project until January 1915, when I resolved to undertake a life of Akbar on a scale rather smaller than that at first contemplated. The result of my researches during two years is now submitted to the judgement of the public. The long delay in coming to close quarters with the subject has proved to be of the greatest advantage, both to myself and to my readers. The publication of sound, critical versions of Abu-l Fazl's Akbarn ma, Jahang r's authentic Memoirs, Gulbadan Begam's Memoirs, and certain minor works has rendered accessible in a convenient form all the principal Persian authorities for the reign.

Excerpt from Akbar, Emperor of India: A Picture of Life and Customs From the Sixteenth Century When we wish to understand a personality we are in the habit of ascertaining the inherited characteristics, and investigating the in uences exercised upon it by religion, family, environment, education, youthful impressions, ex perience, and so forth. Most men are easily comprehen sible as the products of these factors. The more inde pendent of all such in uences, or the more in opposition to them, a personality develops, the more attractive and inter esting will it appear to us. At the first glance it looks as if the Emperor Akbar had developed his entire character from himself and by his own efforts in total independence of all in uences which in other cases are thought to deter mine the character and nature of a man. A Mohammedan, a Mongol, a descendant of the monster Timur, the son of a weak incapable father, born in exile, called when but a lad to the government of a disintegrated and almost annihi lated realm in the India of the sixteenth century, - which means in an age of perfidy, treachery, avarice, and self seeking, - Akbar appears before us as a noble man, suscep tible to all grand and beautiful impressions, conscientious, unprejudiced, and energetic, who knew how to bring peace and order out of the confusion of the times, who through out his reign desired the furtherance of his subjects' and not of his own interest, who while increasing the privileges of the Mohammedans, not only also declared equality of rights for the Hindus but even actualized that equality, who in every conceivable way sought to conciliate his sub.
