This book is a significant historical work that provides insight into the Assamese perspective on Delhi's Mughal rulers. Originally written in Assamese as Padshah-Buranji, this chronicle is a rare text that delves into the complex interactions between the Ahom kingdom of Assam and the Mughal Empire in North India. Bhuyan’s translation, coupled with his extensive introduction and notes, brings this important document to a wider audience, particularly those interested in South Asian history, colonial studies, and Assamese literature.
