Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Maratha People, Vol. 2 A few words only are needed by way of introduction to the Second volume. The main authorities for the lives of Sambhaji and Rajaram are the Chitnis Bakhar, the Shedgavkar Bakhar, Khafi Khan, the Musulman works translated by Scott and known as Scott's Deccan, Orme's Fragments and the Parasnis Papers. I must also express my grateful ac knowledgments to Professor Sarkar's History of Aurangzeb, Vol. IV, and to Mr. Irvine's translation of the Storia do Mogor. For my account of the Maratha wars against the Portuguese, my warmest thanks are due to the Goa Govern ment, who with admirable generosity and kindness sent me a quantity of specially chosen books and papers on the subject.
