> Dear Colleagues,
>
> I am seeking some information on one Munshi Naulakshur, who seems to have
> run in the gentry-service circles of Faizabad and Lucknow c. late 1700s
> and early 1800s. I've been able to glean some insight from translating his
> 'Allah Khud'ai', but as you know, Indo-Islamic authors - unlike the
> British - rarely spoke of themselves directly.
>
> Any suggestions for further reading in English, Urdu or Persian, or
> general biographical information, would be most useful.
>
> Thanking you,
