Summary
'India and the Silk Roads' is a global history of a continental interior, the first to comprehensively examine the textual and material traces of India's caravan trade with central Asia. But what was the fate of these overland connections in the ages of sail and steam? This text brings the world of caravan trade to life-a world of merchants, mercenaries, pastoralists and pilgrims, but also of kings, bureaucrats and their subjects in the countryside and towns.--, Provided by publisher
