Gem In The Lotus: The Seeding Of Indian Civilisation

Rating:
Summary: Highly readable
Review: It must be pointed out that data on Ancient India seems to be rather scarce if compared to other civilizations (such as China , Egypt or Summer). I had tried a couple of times to find a book on India, informative and easy to read, and I had failed. Abraham Eraly's Gem in the Lotus happens to be the book, able to expose available knowledge without making you fall asleep. So I daresay that this is a book that can be savoured by the professional historian and educated layperson alike.
