The book ""Memoirs Of Zehir-Ed-Din Muhammed Babur V2: Emperor Of Hindustan"" is a historical account written by Babur, also known as Zehir-Ed-Din Muhammed Babur, who was the founder of the Mughal Empire in India. The book is a continuation of Babur's memoirs, which he began writing in 1494 and continued until his death in 1530.
