Summary
A great warrior and skilled administrator, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, better known as Shivaji, was the founder of the great Maratha Empire and one who instilled a sense of Maratha identity in his people.
At a time when the Mughal Empire was at its zenith, Shivaji was the only one who dared to challenge the might of Emperor Aurangzeb. He steadily grew his army from a humble contingent of 2,000 soldiers to a force of 100,000. Assisted by a disciplined military system, a well-structured administrative organization and a deeply traditional society, soon the Maratha force became the only military power of consequence against the Mughals in India.
Including accounts of legendary encounters like those with the Adil-Shahi Sultanate and the menacing Aurangzeb, Shivaji: The Grand Rebel is an epic saga of an Indian warrior king whose tales of victory and valour have been inspiring the nation for centuries.

An Indian Constantine The Great.
Indian history is massively exciting and fascinating. A man of great ability and charm, charismatic and endearing to those around him. He may have been too compromising and kind to his adversaries, but it served him well. Naturally this is a largely biased book, but much has to be assumed somewhat exact in facts. One of the rare lives that can be said to have been lived to the fullest.
