In this second edition the Persian text of the *Anecdotes* has been carefully corrected. Aurangzib has been well called a master of the sword and the pen, and this book illustrates what a powerful, and sometimes caustic, style in the Persian language he wielded. It shows that, contrary to the popular belief, he was not devoid of humour. Printed from one unique and two fragmentary MSS.
