  1. Anurag Ghoshal –

    A unique perspective! I appreciated the depth of research and the exploration of cultural differences. Highly recommended for serious history readers.

  2. Anil –

    This Jesuit’s view on Emperor Jahangir is interesting, but can be dull at times. For those interested in history, I recommend.

  3. Arkadeep Bhowmick –

    This book delivered an excellent deep dive into Mughal history from a different viewpoint. However, it may not appeal to everyone.

  4. Ritika –

    Fascinating insight into the Mughal court! Be aware, however, that the Jesuit perspective is naturally opinionated.

  5. Vaibhav Kumar –

    A truly informative book, well-written and engaging! The author truly captured what it must’ve been like back in Mughal times.

  6. Bhavana Dubey –

    A well-researched book that gives a good account of the political climate of the time. Though I wished it had been less one-sided.

  7. Nupur Mahajan –

    The translation is excellent, and the historical details are rich. However, the Jesuit perspective can feel biased at times. Still, a valuable resource.

  8. Valley Issar –

    Interesting read. It provides great insight into the Mughal empire and the interactions between different cultures. Sometimes it was slow-paced.

  9. Anant Srivastava –

    An okay book. It wasn’t badly written, but didn’t hold my attention as much as I hoped. Interesting premise, though.

  10. Dev Randhir –

    A fascinating glimpse into Jahangir’s court through the eyes of a Jesuit. Some parts were a bit dense, but overall, a worthwhile read for Mughal history buffs.

  11. Akhil Kumar Yadav –

    I found the book insightful, especially the descriptions of court rituals. The writing style felt a bit academic and dry for my taste.

  12. Urvi Bansal –

    I liked learning about the Mughal court through the lens of a Jesuit priest. Some parts were confusing, but generally, I enjoyed it.
