Jahanara, Princess
1 Reviews

Royal Diaries series.
The daughter of Moghul ruler Shah Jahan, Jahanara is surrounded not only by regal splendor but also by political intrigue. Her diary descriptions of exotic harem life and riches beyond belief are captivating, but the narrative founders at the book's end, attempting to summarize too many years in too few entries. A family tree, historical note, and archival photos add context. Glos.
