The Last of the Peshwas: A Tale of the Third Maratha War is a historical fiction novel written by Michael Macmillan and published in 1907. The story is set in India during the early 19th century and revolves around the Third Maratha War, which took place between the British East India Company and the Maratha Empire. The novel follows the life of Baji Rao II, the last Peshwa of the Maratha Empire, and his struggle against the British forces. Baji Rao II is portrayed as a tragic hero who is torn between his loyalty to his people and his desire to maintain his power. The novel explores the political and social dynamics of the time, including the relationship between the British and the Indian rulers, the caste system, and the role of women in Indian society.The Last of the Peshwas is a well-researched and detailed account of the Third Maratha War, and it offers insight into the historical events that shaped India's colonial past. The novel is also a poignant portrayal of the human cost of war and the impact it has on individuals and communities. Overall, The Last of the Peshwas is a compelling and thought-provoking read that offers a unique perspective on India's history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
