Description
Indian History is long and full of diverse pageants. Many kings and emperors, conquerors and adventurers, tyrants and despots, dictators and duce's have strutted across its stage and then passed into oblivion.
Our history has largely been a narration of their achievements and failures, a record of their crusades and enterprises, a catalogue of their passions and prejudices, a tale of their pride, cruelty, eccentricities and ambition.
There have been poets and writers, artists and sculptors, teachers and thinkers, saints and scholars, educators and reformers--people who eschewed power as such and pursued virtue and made a far more valuable contribution to the social and cultural history of the land.
