The anecdotes, 72 in number, have been translated from a Persian work (the \*Akham-i-Alamgiri\*, ascribed to Aurangzib's favourite officer Hamiduddin Khan Nimcha), which no other historian has yet used and whose very existence was hardly known before. Two fragmentary MSS. of it were discovered by Prof. Sarkar; and with the help of these and of two others, he has edited the text, and written an English translation, enriched with full historical and textual notes.
