Kashmir has the privilege of being one of the oldest civilization in the worid with recorded history. It is the only place where the oldest attempts at historiography were carried out. Kalhana’s Rajatarangini still stands out as the earliest record of a nation’s royal history. Equally important are its addendums that were chronicled much later by Jonaraja, shrivara, Prajayabhatta and Shuka.
This compilation, for the first time, brings all those histories in a single volume. |
