Biographical novel on the life of Chhatrapti Shivaji

Chhatrapati

History reminds us of incidents and conditions of the life lead by people of those times. But History limits itself to "why and when" only. History does not bother itself with "how" most of the times. Historian do analyze the past, but literary researchers go one step further in this sense.

History cares more about the historical incidents, then about the people. On the other hand, literature delves deeply into the lives. History tells us that Shivaji met Afjal Khan, who tried to cheat him, but Shivaji was prepared for this deception and took care of him successfully.

Historians are usually satisfied by these facts, but literary researchers mostly worry about things like, "what was Shivaji thinking at the time of meeting? or "what was going on in Afjal’s mind". In Biography we need both of these aspects and Manu Sharma has carefully constructed a complete picture by using his genuine creativity with the knowledge of History.
