"This work is devoted to the detailed and critical study of the costume, coiffure and ornament that were prevalent among the people of North-Eastern India from c. 325 BC to c. 1200 AD. Costume, coiffure and ornament form a constituent element of human culture. They are excellent embodiments of individual as well as racial self-expression. They also explain aesthetic qualities, love for beauty and refinement, and the influence internal and external bearing on the material life of the people. Written with a facile pen in simple yet lucid style, its narration of the three different aspects of adornment and beautification leaves an indelible impression. It covers a long period and records in clear and unequivocal terms all trends and tendencies in fashion and styles. It is of abiding value and bears sufficient proof of the author s indefatigable zeal and seasoned research discipline. Seller Inventory # 25839A
