Description
True to its title, this book is an anthology which presents a brilliant and lively picture of the people of India. The history, literature, religions, philosophy and culture amplyprovide the background for the India of today. The author presents a coherent picture of India, taking inspiration from the broad study of literature, and from the corpus left behind by foreign explorers, missionaries, and the scholar-administrators of the Raj.
