"In other parts of India the operation of these or similar causes "has been perceptible, but in many parts it has been partial only; in "others its force may have been detracted from by other influences. "But in Bcrdr it was universal, extending from ono end of the province ' to the other; and there was nothing whatover to counteract its force. "It is this sort of universality which constitutes, perhaps, the peculiarity "of the process in these districts. "This state of things has rendered the people generally prosperous, "progressive, and contented. Some classes do, unfortunately, suffer "therefrom. This, though perhaps it may be mitigated, cannot alto"gether bo helped. Those who suffer will naturally complain, but "that tho accession to provincial prosperity has been vast and rapid is "unquestionable. The most sanguine anticipations of tho growth of "the province in importance have been more than realized, and there "is everything in favour of its further increase." History. Nizim.g Sovereignty.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conquest and Community, by prize-winning historian Shahid Amin, is a kaleidoscopic look into one of the most divisive issues in South Asian history: the Turkic conquest of the subcontinent and the subsequent spread of Muslim rule. Covering more than eight hundred years of history, the book centers around the enduringly popular saint Ghazi Miyan, the youthful and lovable soldier of Islam to whom shrines have been erected all over the country. After detailing the warrior saint s supposed exploits, Amin charts the various ways he has been remembered throughout the last millennium. As he shows, the charming stories, ballads, and proverbs that grew up around him domesticated the bloody conquest and made it appear both virtuous and familial. Amin brings the story of Ghazi Miyan s long afterlife into the contemporary period through his ethnographic analysis of the still-active shrines as sites of interreligious public piety. What is at first glance a story of just one mythical figure becomes through Amin s thoughtful treatment an allegory for the history of Hindu-Muslim relations over an astonishingly long period of time. As the Muslim conquest of India is being mobilized for dangerously polarizing political ends in India today, this nonsectarian account of religious strife will be a timely and sane contribution to the vexed historical debate."
