A journey through 5,000 years of India's history, told through the objects that shaped its civilization.
Every object carries a story. Some tell the story of a family. Others tell the story of a nation.
India: A Story Through 100 Objects invites readers to experience India's remarkable history through one hundred carefully chosen artefacts, each revealing a moment that shaped its culture, beliefs, craftsmanship, and identity.
Written by acclaimed art historian Vidya Dehejia, the book journeys across more than five millennia - from prehistoric tools and sacred sculptures to symbols of India's independence and artistic excellence. Rather than presenting history through timelines, it explores the people, traditions, and ideas behind the objects that continue to influence India today.
Beautifully presented and thoughtfully written, it is a book to revisit, display, and share - making it equally suited for personal libraries and meaningful gifting.
