The book also includes a historical overview of India during the period of Ktesias' writings, as well as an analysis of Ktesias' credibility as a source. The book is a valuable resource for scholars of ancient history and anyone interested in the history and culture of India.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
