The Rig Veda and the History of India by David Frawley "The following book attempts to clarify the historical aspects of the Rig Veda through an examination of its kings, rishies and peoples." "The book covers quite a bit of ground and makes many new points of literary interpretation not only of the Rig Veda but also of the other Vedas, Brahmanas, Puranas, Mahabharata and Ramayana." "Preparing this account of Vedic history has led me to important new ideas about the Vedic world, Vedic values and the place of the Rig Veda in the history of India." The book is in good condition. The hardback cover has a bumped corner and some very light shelf wear. The pages show slight discolouration due to age, but are otherwise clean and unmarked.
