An Advanced History of India - Not so great

I bought this book to primarily answer the innumerable questions my daughter used to ask about Indian history. Since we are from Karnataka, the state syllabus has more chapters on South Indian history. My review will be based on this
PRos - A voluminous book if you are interested in learning about the rule in India from the Salve dynasty onwards
The coverage for Slave dynasties, Mughals, and British (European rule), Frredom struggle is excellent

Cons:
The print is too small for comfortable r...

very important book

Although its a voluminous work and to add, the small font size n cramped up text makes it tedious to read, the effort is worthwhile. Its an original work and it appears that the legendary old NCERT books so relied upon for UPSC History have been inspired by this book. Many sentences seem to be extracted from this book considering it first print was in 1946. Not yet completed the book but I will still recommend provided time is not a factor. Its very helpful for fundamentals as it is unbiased ...

An Invaluable book

This book is very good for any serious history student. Although written in clumsy style still the material inside is matchless

PERFECT

tHIS IS A WONDEFUL REFERENCE BOOK FOR INDIA'S PASSAGE OVER 4 MILLENNIA.THE REALLY SPECIAL FEATURE IS THE FACTUAL AND DISPASSIONATE MANNER IN WHICH SENSITIVE PERIODS ARE DEALT WITH. A TOTAL PICTURE IS ALWAYS PRESENTED. IT ALSO HAS SUFFICIENT DETAILS DESPITE COVERING SUCH A VAST TIME SPAN OF EVENTS AND PERSONALITIES.

Huge Huge

Very Huge for a learner. A history freak can definitely go for it. Book editing seems like not taken much care. You can spot many mistakes (spellings).

Worthless.

This book is completely worthless, no concepts, no ideas just a bunch of facts picked from here and there...this is the kind of book that will make you never pick up any history book ever again. This book will only tell you dates, names, places that's it. It is better to read Romila thapar for ancient, Satish Chandra for medieval and Sumit Sarkar or Bipin Chandra for modern history.
