	Price : Rs 995.00
	Your Price : Rs 845.75

I shall try to describe how the small isolated Hindu kingdoms in different parts of Cambodia were welded into a mighty kingdom that stretched from the Bay of Bengal to the Sea of China, how the essential spirit of the Hindu culture was transplanted to this distant corner of Asia, how the Hindu religion inspired it to build monuments whose massive grandeur still excites the wonder of the world and far surpasses anything known so far in India, how art and institutions, created on Indian models, grew and developed a unique character; how this mighty colonial kingdom flourished for more than a thousand years fed by constant steams of civilization flowing from the motherland and at last met with inevitable decline when this perennial source itself decayed and ceased to flow. (From Author`s Preface).

The clear purpose of the book is to emphasise the broad features of the history and civilization of Kambuja in order that a solid foundation may be laid for further detailed studies on the subject. It may be noted that there is at present no text which gives a critical review of the history of Kambuja as a whole, in the light of modern researches on the subject.ISBN:
