Srinivas Reddy is a scholar, translator and musician. His previous books include translations of Krishnadevarayas Amuktamalyada and Kalidasas Meghadutam and Malavikagnimitram.
Worst book I have ever read. The author is desperate to show that history of Vijayanagar empire is not about religions but he chooses to deliberately ignore that fact that the fall of the empire is because Muslims generals in the army betrayed Vijayanagar army in the battle of tallikota.
