Rulers Of India Albuquerque

About the Book:-Affonso de Albuquerque was the first European since Alexander the Great who dreamed of establishing an empire in India, or rather in Asia, governed from Europe. The period in which he fought and rules in the East is one of the entrancing interest and great historical importance, and deserves more attention than it has received from the English people, as the present ruling race in India. In the course of 20 years’ studies relating to India, the author found that the history of the Portuguese has been shamefully neglected. In attempting to get better information, he found that the true history of the Portuguese in India furnishes most important guidance for the present day, and the assertions commonly made about it are utterly false, especially in regard to the ecclesiastical history. He plans to give a short list of the more important works on the history of the Portuguese in the East during the sixteenth century, while they were a conquering and a ruling power, in the hope that it may be useful to anyone wishing to investigate the subject further than it has been possible for him to do in this volume. About the Author :-Henry Morse Stephens was an historian and professor of history at the University of California, Berkeley who helped to purchase the Bancroft Library, and who worked to build archives of California history, the 1906 San Francisco earthquake, and World War I. Stephens immigrated to the United States in 1894 and took the position of Professor at Cornell University in the Department of History, where he taught European History. At Cornell, Stephens took a particular interest in advising undergraduates, starting two traditions which endured at Cornell for the next two decades: Thursday nights for upper classmen, and career conferences and advice to seniors as to their future professional careers. He was also an avid fundraiser for Cornell's athletic teams. The Title 'Rulers Of India Albuquerque written/authored/edited by H. Morse Stephens', published in the year 2020.
