The Orign And The Glorious Past Of The Andhras (A Historical Sketch)

About the Book:-While a student in the logical seminary at Kandy in Ceylon, the author, a native of Andhra desired to read a paper on the history of the Andhras. Finding research material to be very lacking, he consulted many books and scholars regarding this subject. It is not an exhaustive book, but, none the less, concise and friendly. This book, the labour of his research, presents a very readable account of the mythic legends of the Andhra people, and its fame in the past ages. It is not an exhaustive book, having only 118 pages, but, none the less, concise and reader-friendly. The story of this noble land then and in particular of Andhra Desa and its people, the Andhras, and their past achievements, we shall endeavour to narrate in these few pages. As we shall soon show, the Andhras were the pride of India and their deeds and achievements were her glory. To write of Andhra Desa is to write a good and select portion of the History of India. The wonderful history of the rise and fall of once mighty nations is one to which we are not strangers. We know how nation after nation, city after city, rose to opulence and power, and in time sank into insignificance and decay. To take but a few examples, on the banks of the Nile an ancient of The Origin and the Glorious civilization was evolved and nurtured and its secret now lies buried amid the tombs and monuments, beneath the desert sands. Fifteen hundred years before the advent of Christ, its merchants bought from India, her muslins and silks, her spices and pearls, of more value than gold. The ships of the Assyrians and Babylonians sailed forth in all their glory and splendour to buy from India the teakwood, where with the people of that land built their palaces and the gold of the East, with which they adorned their maidens and guided their temples.
