The India They Saw Complete ( Volume- 1, 2, 3 & 4 Sets Of 4 Books In English)  (Paperback, Sandhya Jain, Meenakshi Jain)

Vol.1-This uninhibited intellectual and spiritual exploration of India’s Sanskritic or Indic culture ended abruptly with the rise of Islam in Arabia in the seventh century and its outward thrust into Europe, North Africa, central Asia and the Indian sub-continent, where it fought to establish political and religious supremacy. Possibly the last Buddhist monk to take the land route to India was the Korean pilgrim hye ch’o, who arrived as the armies of Islam began cutting through central Asia Vol.2-This volume confines itself to European writings of sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Vol.3-The age of Arab travellers; geographers; merchants and historians commenced with the Islamic ascendancy. Vol.4-The rise of Christianity pushed Europe into a cocoon.
