The Stone Age In India: Being The Sir S. Subrahmanya Ayyar Lecture Delivered On December 10, 1925

About the Book:-The pageant of Indian history is the grandest that the history of any country can offer. The history of India began when man first appeared on the globe. Since then, the Indian people alone of the peoples of the various countries of the earth have been progressing without interruption in handicraft, physical sciences applied to manual industries, art work on wood, stone and ivory, social amelioration and religious experience. The civilization of India alone has progressed for countless millenniums without being prematurely choked out of existence by the desiccation of the soil or the drying up of the nobler springs of human action, by the spread of malaria or the moral decadence of the people. It is true that the progress of culture in India, though continuous, was not uniform. It did not proceed in a straight line, but in undulations like the waves of the sea. Sometimes the crest of the wave of progress was tall; at other times the trough between two waves was very broad but there has been always progress and never retrogression. The first and the second chapters of this entrancing history have till now been neglected by scholars, and the author will sketch them in outline in this lecture. About the Author:- P. T.
