In fact the book is a treat for its readers as its account of historical events is by and large an illuminating objective assessment of events, persons and places of ,the period.

Mohammad-Ud-Din Fouq, the author of the book took about twenty five years (1928-1953) to collect the relevant material, sift fact from fiction, draw inferences and finally write such a useful, informative and objective book on the history of Kashmir. The completion of this treatise must have made him work extremely hard. His diligence coupled with his intelligence and dedication have paid rich dividends as this book is a valuable contribution to the literature on the history of Kashmir. Tarikh-e-Budshahi is indispensable for those who are desirous of getting an insight into the chequered history of Kashmir.
