The Muslim Epoch

The Muslim Epoch by J.D. Rees is a historical analysis of the Islamic period in Indian history, exploring the political, cultural, and religious impact of Muslim rule on the subcontinent. Rees presents a British colonial perspective, often reflecting the imperial attitudes of his time, highlighting the administrative systems, military conquests, and the influence of Islamic governance. While informative, the book blends history with contemporary colonial views, making it both a source of historical insight and a reflection of early 20th-century British interpretations of India’s past.
