The book content is good and exhaustive but the language is not for kids below 12 years of age. They need a lot more interactive information and the tone needs to be less pedagogical

I'm a student from the pupil ib 🏫 school. Since ib curriculum has a lot of activities such as creating a civilization and more. Me and my father are very interested in reading and learning about civics, laws, history, and economics. My dad has recently recommend a few 📚 books to read and it's related about history. The names of the books include: history of India by archana garodia Gupta and history of India by subhdra sen Gupta. So, after the completion of the history of India by subhadra sen Gupta, my family and me started to purchase Christmas 🎁 gifts for ourselves and for others. So by that I got an opportunity to buy the vol 1 and vol 2 book of archana garodia Gupta. And so the book is interesting and informative giving a lot of information and interesting facts. I highly recommend this book to everyone. Thank you !

5.0 out of 5 stars 6 Stars

If it were possible to give 6 stars, I would, for both Volume 1 and Volume 2.
I flipped through both volumes and found them fascinating. I have just started reading Volume 1. The books are incredibly well researched and written in an engaging style, so that History becomes fun. There are numerous photographs, maps and pictures. The writers are well versed with science, for example they discuss the R1A mutation on the Y chromosome, which helps in tracking the spread of populations.

I was an above average student at school, but I found History boring. I wish these two books were available when I was a school student. These books would have completely changed my views about History.

I think these books should be read by everyone who can read. I hope they get translated into Indian languages as well. They are incredible value for money and I looking forward to slowly reading both the books over the next couple of weeks.

Congratulations to both the authors. You have done the impossible. You have made History fun for me.

5.0 out of 5 stars History as never told before
Reviewed in India 🇮🇳 on 29 August 2018

Henry Ford said ‘History is bunk’ but for most of us it was the subject in school that spelt boredom and often brought tears to our eyes out of frequent yawning. But here is a book set that presents history in a manner that actually tells you an untold story. It is lucid, interesting with nuggets and anecdotes and makes you want to know more. Wow that’s a complete change of heart as far is History is concerned. The title ‘The History of India for children” –Vol 1&2 is a bit of a misnomer. Its interesting reading material for anyone who can read and understand basic English. As a matter of fact adults would find it even more fascinating. Hachette should consider renaming it “History as never told before” or something similar. A few coloured pictures may also make it more interesting in terms of presentation. Great work backed with a lot of research, this should be part of everyone’s library collection. An expanded version would be welcome since often you are left with the feeling ”Tell me more”. A must buy. Enjoy.

The media could not be loaded.
 Over all the stuff written in was good. Only 2 or 3 weeks later pages started tearing off and the font was very small.

5.0 out of 5 stars Execellent Book to understand India
Reviewed in India 🇮🇳 on 6 September 2018

A refreshing take on Indian History. Authors, Archana and Shruti, have condensed a significant amount of knowledge in these books. Its a very easy read. It makes reading history interesting. What I liked best, is that the authors have kept a very factual viewpoint; very difficult for many other historians.
Also very much liked 'What in the World Was Happening' at the end of each chapter. While you are immersed in the details of what was happening in India, having this perspective of what was happening outside India is very useful.
Another good thing is that its not a history of kings and queens; conquests and struggles; its a holistic view covering art culture, sports, literature, etc.
I highly recommend this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not just for Children - A very engaging and comprehensive look at Indian History
Reviewed in India 🇮🇳 on 15 August 2018
Verified Purchase
This is a fabulously easy to read book on Indian history, suitable for adults as well as children. It is well classified into distinct periods. What takes this to the next level is the that each period has well presented, seemingly customised maps, and well highlighted interesting tidbits and fun facts, making it very easy to read and understand. Love their overview on what is happening in the rest of the world during each period, it puts things very nicely in perspective. A must buy for anyone remotely interested in Indian history or reading in general...
