The Tuzuk-i-Jahangiri: or, Memoirs of Jahangir (Volume 2 of 2) by Jahangir
"The Tuzuk-i-Jahangiri: or, Memoirs of Jahangir (Volume 2 of 2)" by Jahangir is an autobiography written between 1605 and 1622. Following his great-grandfather Babur's example, Mughal Emperor Jahangir chronicles the first nineteen years of his reign in Persian. Beyond political history, he reflects on art, family life, and social issues, including his efforts to curb corruption among jagirdars and his deep trust in his wife Nur Jahan. The memoirs were later completed
by court historians after Jahangir stopped writing in 1621. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
