Description

About The Book: In this book, the author elucidates "The Princes of India: An Historical Narrative of the Principal Events from the Invasion of Mahmoud of Ghizni to that of Nadir Shah." The content encompasses various aspects, including the early history of India, the knowledge and philosophy of the Brahmins, the concept of caste, the adherence to "immemorial custom," the pantheon of Hindu deities, the tenets of Buddha and Brahma, the significance of the Vedas, and the institutions governing men. Additionally, the narrative delves into India's economic interactions with Arabia, governmental structures, Persian influence, and the period of Mahmoud's ascendancy to the Ghizni Empire. Inspired by journeys through India and Ceylon, Sullivan's pages, while not explicitly positioning themselves as historical, aspire to kindle curiosity about the country's abundant chronicles, unparalleled in natural grandeur. He underscores the prominence of India's eminent figures—sovereigns, warriors, and statesmen—with the aim of nurturing a heightened appreciation for its historical importance.
