Nripendra Nath Ray

During 1939—1941, Nripendra Nath contributed several articles to the Bombay edition of The Times of India, Festivals of India was the outcome of this effort. Taken together, these essays were full of reliable information on India and her culture. Tourists and travelers eager to know and understand the diversified cultures and traditions of India would have been benefitted if this collection was published then as a book. Retrieving from the torn pages of The times of India we bring out this book in order to introduce the 21^st century Indians to their own culture and heritage. Taken together, these essays bring forth a wonder called India with her diversified cultures and festivals. That it comes with Principal places of India adds value to the edition.
