Description
The legends of India recapture the long history of the Indian peoples. The richness of Indian story-telling comes from the great cultural diversity in the subcontinent, representing many races and ways of life. Many of the stories are based on actual persons, places and events, and belong both to the oral literature of antiquity and the more recent written literature of the Moghuls. The way in which both text and full-colour illustrations combine both authenticity and contemporaneity makes this a remarkable book. ISBN:0600001296
