  • “The Mirat-i-Ahmadi 1૩ by far the most valuable texi on 1medieval Indian history published in the Qaekwad’s Series. It lights up the history of Gujrat and the provinecial administrative system of the Mughal empire with fulness of detail, accuracy and array of charters and State-papers unapproached by any other Subah of India.”
  • “But this difficulty cen be over- come by a study एवं the authoritative works on the Administrative system of the Mughal Empire and the marginal glosses (ascribed to the author) found in છ very early ms. of the work now in the Oriental Public Library of Patna.”
  • “As the editor admits, ‘I candidly confess that as a historian the author is unsatis- factory, because 119 omits उठ much that might છછ interesting, and usually fails to explain 1116 real causes एवं the expeditions.... निज scraps બ Turkish and Indian history are useless.’””
