Book Description
Time has already obliterated many of our historical mile posts: the
changing course of the rivers have washed away many cities, and capitals. The inexorable
monsoons have caused the molding and decay of much archival material; floods, tidal-bores, epidemics & famines have ravaged vast communities along with the despoliation of the arts and artifact that sustained the life of such communities. The silent process of erosion continues. Add to these the political upheavals, riots, global wars and the war of
independence all to which have brought destruction, mass migration and over all dislocation in its trail. We are not sufficiently aware of what is being lost nor of the harm it is doing to us.
