048 - Mythology in Hinduism and Buddhism

Originally begun in 1907, An Historical Sketch is a remarkable three-volume work, with this being the first installment. Authored by a British diplomat stationed in Asia, this comprehensive exploration was disrupted by World War I but ultimately published in 1921. Often hailed as the definitive text on its subject, this book offers a clear and engaging narrative that makes the complex histories of Hinduism and Buddhism accessible to all readers.
