Fall of the Mughal Empire v4.c60.1

- **Language:** English

### [v4.c60.1](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.sarkar-1932.v4.c60.1)

In this book an attempt has been made for the first time to use all the Persian and Marāthi narratives, despatches, and news-reports (often unprinted) relating to this period, along with the English and French materials which alone were used by my predecessors in this field of history. I have dug down to the very roots of original historical sources, namely the reports written by the actors in the scenes and the news-writers employed by them, which were absolutely contemporaneous with the events and authentic, subject only to the necessary allowances for the writers' personal prejudices.
