It is described variously for these two attributes, but equally significant, though less appreciated at the popular level, are several aspects of the Hindu history, culture, religion, literature, architecture and art of Kashmir that evolved and permeated this great abode of human heritage in ancient times.I congratulate the author for this good work in having described various aspects of Hinduism in Kashmir in a simple and comprehensible manner. The book is a welcome addition to the already existing corpus of literature on Kashmir and must stimulate a good amount of renewed interest in the readers. I wish the book success both in its commercial journey and scholarly reception ER -
