Title: A good survey of Indian history before the British raj
Review: This book is over thirty years old, so its brief discussion of modern India is obviously outdated. However, the book is supposed to present on overview of Indian history, spanning from prehistoric empires to the coming of British rule (the Raj), so its age would not preclude me from recommeding it to anyone. The text is insightful, clear, and well-illustrated with photos and prints of classical Indian art and architecture.I read this book before travelling to India on a vacation, and it was a very useful learning tool for me.
