A Concise History of South India: Issues and Interpretations

If someone wants to study the history of South India, this is a very good book to start with. It enables us to have a quick grasp of the overall history of South India. Based on this, other books can be read to get more detailed account of specific events. The other good point is that the book is not only about political history. It covers other areas like economy, religion, language, etc.

Brilliant piece of work the late Prof Karashima.

A book covers many parts of South India along with maps, so it is easy to understand the culture, tradition and rulers of old south india

Great book of considerable research.

It is worth reading once. Not many new findings or thoughts
