Book Description
About the Book
"The Military System of the Marathas" by Surendranath Sen examines the military organization, strategies, and campaigns of the Maratha Empire. Published in 1930, it provides a detailed account of the Maratha army's structure, leadership, weaponry, and battlefield tactics, illustrating their significant impact on Indian military history during the 17th and 18th centuries.

About the Author
Surendranath Sen (1890-1962) was an eminent historian specializing in ancient and medieval Indian history. He authored several influential books and research papers, notably on the Gupta Empire and Bengal history. Sen's meticulous scholarship and critical analysis continue to shape understanding of India's historical evolution, particularly in the realms of political and cultural developments.

Preface
A civilian writing about military matters labours under obvious difficulties, and it is necessary to offer an explanation for undertaking a task for which neither my training nor my profession qualifies me. Nearly ten years ago I began a study of the civil institutions of the Marathas with a view to explore the causes of the rapid expansion of their empire and its speedy collapse. The Maratha empire was primarily a military organisation and its civil institutions were closely connected with its military system. Every state forms an organic unit, and even a cursory examination of its character demands an enquiry into the nature of its component parts. This is the only excuse I can offer for trespassing into domains other than my own, but I am fully conscious of my limitations and I have carefully avoided all technical matters as far as possible and confined myself to those broad questions to which even a layman can do some justice. The need for such a survey was pointed out by the late Mr. Sydney Owen more than fifty years ago. If the civilian student of military history suffers from some disadvantage due to his lack of technical knowledge, he is further handicapped when he selects the military history of the Marathas as the subject of his enquiry. In England a large number of useful works on the art and science of war was written and published in the 16th and 17th centuries, but the Maratha commanders and strategists have left us nothing of that kind.
