About The Book: In Volume 1 Lawrence vividly portrays Lahore during Maharaja Ranjit Singh’s reign, meeting influential courtiers like the Faqir brothers and Dhian Singh. He details governance, revenue systems, judicial practices, and court life, blending history with personal memoir. Volume 2 continues with Lawrence’s appointment as Subahdar of Kangra, deepening his involvement in Sikh court politics. He observes political intrigues, military events, and the gradual decline of Ranjit Singh’s empire. The narrative explores complex court relationships and reflects on the blurred line between fact and fiction in his recounting of these transformative years in Punjab’s history.
