Brilliant book. Original research. To go through all the Jatakas, Mahabharata, Vedas, Ramayana & most of our sanskrit literature, to scientifically distill down places/ locations, and the tribes/races which formed ancient India, is a lifetime of work, which our generation must appreciate. This book is a masterpiece. Bimala Churan Law's work sadly remains undiscovered by most. Would love to know more about her & her work.
Dr. (Mr.) Bimala Churn Law's (1892 -1969, a male) actual name is Mr. Bimala Charon Laha but during that period (1920s) many members of the Laha family used "Law" instead of "Laha" so that it seems British. Like the First Congress (INC) President used "W.C. Bonnerjee" whose real name was Umesh Chandra Banerjee or Bandopadhyay. But Dr Law's or Laha's work deserves a lot of credit.
good book for research scholers...
