The Marathas were the predecessors of the British in India and their decline and fall is a sorry tale indeed. This Decline and fall of the Maratha Empire book is not just about the end of Maratha power in India, but also covers the background before the decline started, which was not a sudden event, but which took years and decades to manifest itself. It is a skill of author Wing Commander (retd.) Dr. Mukund S. Naravane, which makes it believable, on account of logical approach and strength of the narrative; based on a large amount research and diligence.
