This illustrated study investigates the Indo-Islamic fighting men of South Asia from the 7th century AD to the Mughal conquest of the 16th century.

From 1206, much of what is now India as well as parts of Pakistan, Bangladesh and Nepal were ruled by a succession of Islamic dynasties that had their origins in the Ghurid forces that conquered parts of northern India in the 12th century. Although it was never complete, the Islamic domination of this huge region also had a profound impact upon Islamic civilization as a whole, not least in military terms, being felt as far west as Africa. Within South Asia, the war-torn medieval centuries laid the foundations for the subsequent even more brilliant Mughal Empire.

Featuring eight plates of superb artwork alongside carefully chosen photographs and illustrations, this study complements the same author's Medieval Indian Armies (1): Hindu, Buddhist and Jain. It describes and illustrates the Indo-Islamic forces operating in South Asia, from the Umayyad Caliphate's frontier in north-western India and Afghanistan in the late 7th century through to the Delhi Sultanate, the Sultanate of Bengal and the Bahmani Sultanate in the 15th and 16th centuries.

David Nicolle explains how, with respect to arms, armour, fortification and transport both on land and at sea, the widely successful Muslim armies learned a great deal from their more numerous Hindu, Jain and Buddhist opponents. This was especially evident in developments such as the use of war-elephants and the adoption of lighter, often textile-based forms of protection such as 'soft armour' made of cotton. On the other side, there would be widespread adoption of more potent weapons such as the composite bow, and considerably more sophisticated systems of cavalry warfare, among the non-Islamic forces of the Indian sub-continent. Fully illustrated, this absorbing account casts light on many centuries of warfare in South Asia.

Great coffee, fresher than what I find in Seattle stores.
Flavor Name: Major Dickason's Blend, Size: 18 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Always shopped locally for Major Dickason's, looking for sales. Amazon price is good and the exp. date is much farther out than anything on the local shelves.

I believe that coffee/espresso is a lifelong journey around the world in search of that perfect bean. This coffee is one of few we enjoy. Consistent flavor, true Aroma Therapy whether I grind for Drip, Perculator or Espresso, the flavor profile remains the same. Bravo! 🇺🇸

My Go-To Everyday Joe
Flavor Name: Major Dickason's Blend, Size: 18 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Very rich coffee and not acidic!! So many of the lighter roasts I have tried have a high acidity and I admit maybe I am sensitive to it. Bit this Peet's blend is very consistent, dark roast perfection, flavorful and rich. I am very impressed! Great beans! Cheaper than buying direct from Peet's too.
