Bhupendra –
Amazing work by the author. I can tell the author put many hours into researching for the book. Must read if you enjoy history books.
Pooja –
A fascinating account of Bahadur Shah Zafar and the end of an era. Dalrymple brings history to life, although the ending is inevitably heartbreaking.
Taruna Satija –
While informative, the book felt a bit dry at times. I wish there was more focus on Zafar’s personal life and less on the political machinations.
Lakshyaa Anand –
An excellent and well-written history book. The book is well-written and researched, providing a comprehensive look.

A comprehensive and insightful look at a pivotal moment in history. Highly recommended for anyone interested in the Mughal Empire or the uprising.

Dalrymple’s research is impeccable, but the sheer amount of detail sometimes overwhelms the narrative. Still, a crucial read for understanding . A good book
Gouri Sreekumar –
The author has done great job with the history. I learned much more about the mughal dynasty. I enjoyed the book.

A bit dense, but ultimately rewarding. “The Last Mughal” provides valuable insights into a complex period of Indian history. Worth the effort.
Aditya Kumar Jaiswal –
The details are impressive and very well-written book. This book is excellent if you are trying to learn about the Mughal.
Sanskar Jindal –
Well-researched and detailed, but the writing style didn’t always engage me. Good for academic purposes, but not a light read.
Kaushal Kishor –
Dalrymple’s storytelling is captivating, painting a vivid picture of Mughal Delhi. I found it hard to put down, despite the tragic subject matter.
Kamya Singh –
Dalrymple successfully humanizes Zafar and his court, making their downfall all the more poignant. A powerful and moving account.
Shekhar Suresh Patil –
I was expecting more about Zafar himself. Instead, it was more about the political climate which is still good. but I wanted more personal details.
