Babar is also known as Babur the Tiger, the first Mogul of India. Lamb later wrote a biography of Babur. The Mogul kept a very detailed journal of his life that's supposed to be entertaining reading. In it Babur apparently recorded both successes and failures fairly honestly. These two novellas are closely based around these memoirs--Lamb gives Babur joint credit for the composition of them. Because they deal with the entire span of a man's life, these novellas are broad and scope and not as riveting as Lamb's usual fiction, but they are nonetheless fascinating, especially as the events described really happened. If Lamb had invented some of the coincidences that befell Babur it would read like amateurish plot contrivance. Babar was not only shrewd--he was very lucky!
