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.

So happy with this product!
It is tasteless so I’m more likely to use it often. I have noticed a difference with more strength and less pain when doing manual labor soi know it’s effective. With all the shoveling and carrying wood in all the time for the stone, I really needed this! Plus I trust this company for quality products and whenever I need something high quality, I choose them

It needs a scoop otherwise love it.
Got this for my malabsorption that causes brain fatigue and fog. It's working great, too. The lid is a bit odd to open but seals well. My only issue is that it has no scoop. My measuring spoons now have to stay out with the creatine, so I get the proper dosage. If dosage isn't an issue for you, then great. otherwise you need to get another set of measuring spoons.

Great product
I'm not a body builder, at 76 years old I was having muscle aches, and this helps. I take it daily at one teaspoon in my morning coffee.

Highest quality ingredients & secure delivery
Excited to see Pure offer a creatine formula as I already use other products from this highly rated brand. The powder is excellent quality and mixes well. I added it to my protein shake and there was no impact to taste. It digests easily & I experienced zero negative side effects. The paper canister is a unique, sustainable package. While this may be better than plastic, I had a concern it might get damaged in transit. I was encouraged to see it delivered in a firm cardboard box that was securely protected. The container seals well & is an innovative upgrade from normal bottles. This is an excellent addition to my routine. Looking forward to seeing the benefits in the coming weeks!
