The author has been compiled the text of the book after collection of stories from different sources. The Dramatic History of India is indeed an apt title, because the history of India is truly dramatic. However, the name is more liberal than metaphorical. Drama is conveyed through drama. This book is made of twenty-nine playlets that narrate the story of India from the first advent of the Aryans to the zenith of the British Raj. This short volume, narrative history as a series of small plays marks essential events in the history of the Indian subcontinent. The treatment of history is far from empirical. The first playlet “The promised land,” represents the coming of the Aryan race and the subsequent Vedic age. The second playlet — “The Mahabharat” contains several scenes inspired from the great epic. The subject of the book is good in historic point of view. The book is beneficial to all.
