It has now been reprinted, with corrections, and for ease of dealing with the unique hardcover volumes have every one been divided into separate paperbacks.

Bahadur rebelled and was executed. Once again, because Cambridge Histories Online © Cambridge University Press, 2008 MUSLIM INDIA BEFORE THE MUGHALS Muhammad b. Tughluq's attention was diverted by rebellions elsewhere, there was civil war in Bengal, which lasted until Feroz Shah invaded Bengal to chastise Ilyas. We have seen (pp. 21-2) that Feroz recognized the independence of Bengal under Sikandar Shah, who was wounded when his son A'zam rebelled in 79 5 /13 93.
