Lore & Legends - Paperback

by Ashvin Kumar (Translator), Vanidas Elayavoor (Author)

India has been a treasure trove of folklore and fables for millennia, history and legend being so entangled that even academics and historians find it difficult to sort fact from fantasy. Well known scholar and orator Sri Vanidas Elayavoor's monumental task of collecting and collating the legends of north Malabar, handed down orally over the centuries, has ensured that this 'archaeology of knowledge' from the past is preserved for ever. Now, for the first time, a selection of stories featuring the Gods, Goddesses and divinities, scholars, warriors and ruling houses, of this fabled land, is available in English.
