History of India

History of India ( 3 Vols. Set ) by P.C. Jain, R.S Raman History of India is a comprehensive book on Indian history in three volumes covering ancient, medieval and modern periods. The volume one covers from Paleolithic period to 647 AD when the last Gupta ruler Harshavardhana passed away. Volume two ex-plores the history of the period after 647 AD, the year of the death of Harshavardhana, the last of the Great Gupta kings. Volume three is broadly the history of modern India which is usually considered to begin with the emergence of European powers and the Europe’s influence in everything, culture, lifestyle, education-system, art, architecture and is hence more a subject-related concept, not so much the time-defined. P. C. Jain, the editor of ‘History of India’, an instinctive poet, linguist and aesthetician, began his career in 1961 as a university teacher
