N2  - Lords of earth and sea: A history of the Chola empire by Anirudh Kanisetti, Juggernaut books, New Delhi, 2025, 343 pp. Rs. 899 (HB) ISBN 9789353455606. 


Keanisetti treats the story of the Cholas in the kavari Valley in the second half of the 9the century very differently. While available histories begin the story with Vijayalaya, he begins it with his grandson, Parantaka and in a dramatic way. Parantaka is described to have married, “left and right”, wives from rich, landed families. –Reprdouced
