India, in this chronology of events, stands for the country as it is today and as it was before the Partition in 1947. It takes off from 1424 BC, the year widely accepted by historians as that of the Battle of Mahabharata. Until the end of the 17th century, it mostly covers historical events with reference to matters concerning religion as well as the lives of luminaries. Divided into four parts, the encyclopaedia contains (A) a chronology of events, year wise, with cross-references to other years, (B) arrangement of the events by calendar dates, (C) a list of important dynasties, and (D) a full index section, as well as an extra feature, ‘First time in India’ -- General and Women.
