Description
The Panjab Chiefs is a seminal historical work that documents the lives, genealogies, and political significance of the principal families who held authority in the Lahore and Rawalpindi divisions of the Panjab during the British Raj. Authored by Sir Lepel Henry Griffin and Charles Francis Massy, this first volume combines meticulous historical research with biographical narratives of key regional leaders.
The work serves as an invaluable primary source for understanding the political landscape, administrative structures, and social hierarchies of Punjab during colonial India. Through detailed accounts of individual chiefs and their family histories, the authors illuminate the complex relationships between British administrators and local rulers, as well as the transitions in power and governance that characterized this tumultuous period.
This comprehensive reference work remains essential for scholars, historians, and researchers studying Punjab’s history, colonial administration, and the genealogies of influential Punjabi families.
