The warrior who defeated the mighty Mughals - Stephanie Honchell Smith

In 1624, Mughal Emperor Jahangir received word of yet another defeat at the hands of his greatest enemy: Malik Ambar. Jahangir was so obsessed with defeating his rival, he commissioned a painting of himself shooting an arrow at Ambar’s skull. So, who was this brilliant tactician? And how did he come into power? Stephanie Honchell Smith shares Ambar's rise from enslaved youth to kingmaker. Lesson by Stephanie Honchell Smith, directed by Layron DeJarnette, Gumboyo.
