Ebook: The Timurid Legacy: A brief history of Timurid Turco-Mongol Clan of Udhyanpur.

This book tells the story of the Mirza Beg clan of the Mughal Dynasty. The Mughals, who were ethnic Turco-Mongol and descendants of Timur, or Tamerlane, came originally from Central Asia. They established the Mughal empire in India which lasted from 1526 to 1857, introducing many aspects of Persian culture into India, for example literature, painting, and architecture. Under the Great Mughal Emperors, the Mughals experienced expansion and prosperity. When the Mughals extended their reign to Jammu and Kashmir, some prominent Mughal families migrated to Jammu and Kashmir from Delhi and permanently settled in various parts of the region. The Mirza Beg clan of Udhyanpur was one such family that settled in the Udhyanpur region of the Chenab Valley, which was a famous and beautiful pass en route to Kishtwar, owing to its strategic location and picturesque beauty. The Timurid Legacy: A brief history of the Timurid Turco-Mongol Clan of Udhyanpur is written in an accessible style that should appeal to historians, academics, and non-academicians alike. Untold stories, historical facts, and detailed family trees and lineages of many families living in the region should help the reader navigate through the glorious past of this influential Turco-Mongol Clan of Udhyanpur.
