520			_aAurangzib and the decay of the Mughal Empire: This historical work examines the life, reign, policies, and military campaigns of Aurangzib, the sixth Mughal emperor, and considers the factors that contributed to the eventual decline of Mughal power. Stanley Lane-Poole discusses Aurangzib's accession to the throne, his relations with the Rajputs and Marathas, religious policy, prolonged campaigns in the Deccan, the conquest of Golkonda, and the administrative and financial pressures created by continuous warfare. The book also examines the problems of governing an extensive empire and the challenges that emerged after Aurangzib's death. Through its account of the emperor and his successors, the work presents an interpretation of the political and military developments that preceded the gradual decay of the Mughal Empire.
