📖 Description
The Road to Empire – The Political Education of Khalsa Sikhs in the Late 1600s is a rare and highly regarded academic study of early Khalsa political thought and sovereignty.
In this deeply researched work, Satnam Singh examines how the Sikh community transformed from a religious minority into a sovereign political power during the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries.
The book explores:
• Political education under Guru Gobind Singh
• Court literature and intellectual traditions
• Institutional context of the Dasam Granth Sahib
• Sikh Raj and political sovereignty
• Anandpur intellectual culture
• Khalsa governance and kingship concepts
• Early Sikh state formation
Drawing from under-studied Persian and court literature, this work offers a serious intellectual history of Sikh political imagination and empire-building.
This is a rare and expensive academic research volume, ideal for scholars, postgraduate students, historians, and serious collectors of Sikh studies literature.
Hardcover with dust jacket — substantial academic edition suitable for long-term reference and library collection.
