The Fall of the Moghul Empire of Hindustan by H.G. Keene is a historical account of the decline and eventual collapse of the Mughal Empire in India. The book covers the period from the death of Emperor Aurangzeb in 1707 to the British annexation of the Punjab in 1849. Keene describes the political, social, and economic factors that contributed to the weakening of the empire and the rise of regional powers, such as the Marathas and the Sikhs. He also discusses the impact of European colonialism on India and the role of the British East India Company in the downfall of the Moghul Empire. The book provides a comprehensive overview of a crucial period in Indian history and is a valuable resource for students, scholars, and anyone interested in the history of South Asia.Yet that might and that greatness were reduced to a mere show before his long reign terminated; and the Moghul Empire resembled -- to use a familiar image -- one of those Etruscan corpses which, though crowned and armed, are destined to crumble at the breath of heaven or at the touch of human hands. And still more did it resemble some splendid palace.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
