Description
The Biographical Dictionary of Greater India brings between the covers of one book sketches of the men and women who made Afghanistan, Bangladesh, India, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka what (for better or worse) they are today. The volume does not confine itself only to those who were native to South Asia; therefore, along with Gautama Buddha, Asoka, Chandragupta Maurya, Krishnadevaraya, Rammohun Roy, Rani Lakshmibai, Nehru, Tagore and Gandhi it ranges to Alexander the Great, St. Thomas, Vasco da Gama, Clive, Dupleix, Kipling and Mountbatten.
