- Negotiating Mughal Law was researched between 2012 and 2018, and written over 2018-19. It is a major research monograph (of c. 130,000 words), based on research using previously unseen manuscript materials, written in archaic forms of non-European languages (Persian, Hindi, Marathi), and procured with much difficulty from private and government repositories from India and Kuwait. Analysing these materials required an unusual combination of linguistic and research skill, and an enormous amount of time and labour; it opened up an area of research (Mughal law) on which no previous monograph exists.
