Hindu Feasts Fasts and Ceremonies

by Pt. S.M. Natesa Sastri

The folklore of a country is never so well known even by the folk of the country itself. Moreover there is always a young generation growing up which is waiting to be instructed in it by the easiest and widest possible means.

This book is a most excellent work in its collecting, arranging and recording, in a concise and easily assimilable form, some of the more noteable tales, traditions, customs, beliefs, and ceremonies of the Hindu culture.

For a general work-a-day knowledge of the Hindus there is no more useful (and at the same time more interesting) study of current Hindu beliefs and practices than this informative title.
