First published in 1906, this classic nine-volume history of the nation of India places it among the storied lands of antiquity, alongside Egypt, China, and Mesopotamia. Edited by American academic ABRAHAM VALENTINE WILLIAMS JACKSON (18621937), professor of Indo-Iranian languages at Columbia University, it offers a highly readable narrative of the Indian people and culture through to the time of its publication, when the nation was still part of the British Empire. Volume I, From the Earliest Times to the Sixth Century B.C., by Bengali historian ROMESH CHUNDER DUTT (18481909), features entertaining and enlightening treatments of: [ ancient India and the Rig-Veda [ the Indo-Aryans and their literature [ food and art in the Vedic age [ the Brahmanic period and literature [ the Mahabharata [ the Ramayana [ law, astronomy, and learning [ the religious doctrines of the Upanishads [ caste in the age of laws and philosophy [ Buddhist sacred literature [ life of Gautama Buddha [ and much more. This beautiful replica of the 1906 first edition includes all the original illustrations.

First published in 2000. This is Volume III of fourteen of a series on India- its language and literature. Collated in 1894, this is selection of ancient Indian poetry that has been translated into English. They have been chosen for their representation of the genre - the freshness and simplicity of the Vedic Hymns, the sublime and lofty thought of the Upanishads, the unsurpassed beauty of Buddhist precepts, and the incomparable richness and imagery of the later or classical Sanscrit poetry.

First Published in 2000. This title is Volume 4 in the 11-volume series titled India: History, Economy and Society, one of the Trüber's Oriental Series. This title tackles the great task of compiling, for the first time, a connected and clear history of the Ancient Hindus. The first chapters on the Vedic Age were commenced in April 1887, the last chapters on the Puranic Age have been revised in March 1890. The entire edition of a thousand copies has been nearly exhausted for this collection.

It is the saga of riots that had spread much before the partition of India. There were murders, rapes, abductions, looting, and arson, and the government machinery miserably failed to control it. The law and order had gone haywire. The novel is mainly the story of three young boys who had lost their entire family during the riots. One of them though, academically brilliant and career wise, reached a coveted position but could not adjust with the unfamiliar ambiance and was a social misfit and a failure in life. The other two, through their sheer grit, made a mark in their life and bravely faced all the odds and obstacles in an alien milieu. The novel is full of pathos, events, drama, romance, and typical Punjabi sense of humor. The book advocates against religious bigotry without being didactic, because of which mankind is suffering till date. It is a great subject for a movie.
