This short history of Urdu literature aims at describing Urdu language and its literature right from its beginning till the end of 1928. The book covers the origin of Urdu language, its early history, and also Dakhani Urdu and its writers. No country can afford to neglect her ancient heritage – the treasury of its knowledge, wisdom and beauty which are contained in its literature, philosophy and art which are too precious to be lost. Utmost care has been taken to select the writers and poets covered in this unique volume.
T. Grahame Bailey was Reader in Hindi and Urdu in the University of London. Prior to that he was Missionary of the Church of Scotland. He is the author of books on grammar, languages of northern Himalayas, books on Kanauri vocabulary, Punjabi phonetics, and Punjabi grammar among other scholarly works.
