Summary "Rulers of India: Akbar" by G. B. Malleson is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book explores the significant reign of Akbar, the grandson of the Mughal founder, Bábar, focusing on his efforts to consolidate power and establish a stable governance system in India. It delves into the political complexities, challenges, and achievements that defined Akbar's rule, portraying him as a transformative figure in Indian history. At the start of the book, the author outlines the historical context of the Mughal dynasty, discussing the foundation laid by Bábar and the challenges faced by his successor, Humáyún, who struggled to maintain their gains in India. Malleson introduces Akbar as a young boy who inherits an unstable empire and highlights the obstacles he initially faced due to the fragmented political landscape of India, marked by rival factions and a lack of cohesive administration. The narrative depicts the early difficulties in Akbar's reign, setting the stage for his eventual rise to power and reformative influence on governance, emphasizing themes of consolidation, governance, and the principles that would characterize his rule.
