Free delivery on qualified orders. Review: Fine read. - A good read for sure however, an essence of oriental approach is personally felt by me while reading the book, overall a good book to understand the socio-political, economic and military structure of India in the early medieval India. Review: South Asia gets rather less attention from military historians than it deserves. This concise Osprey Men-at-Arms series book, the first of two, takes up the task with a look at the Medieval Period. The Indian subcontinent was the location of many wars between and among various Hindu, Buddhist, and Jain factions, and invading Islamic groups. The narrative walks through a long stretch of Indian history, setting context for the various warring factions. The most interesting part of the book is the examination of various arms, armor, uniforms and transport in use during the period, relying heavily on surviving museum pieces and depictions. The text includes the standard color plates of uniforms and equipment, with explanations. The book may be challenging to readers without background in South Asia. Well recommended as an introduction to the topic.
