The 134-page publication recounts Alexander the Great's love of India and the circumstances that stopped him from becoming king of the world. As many histories of people begin, India starts with a fertile land which naturally brought people together from central Asia and Persia. This Indus Valley civilization dates to 7000 BCE and Captivating History sprinkles bits and pieces of information to add texture to understand the peoples' lives and events that impacted them and influenced their day-to-day decisions. Captivating History introduces the Four Vedas, which were publications that captured the reflective thoughts of these ancient people. Several of the ancient myths are also shared. References are provided at the end of the publication. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hu/products/403823532-ancient-india-a-captivating-guide-to-ancient-indian-history-starting](https://www.desertcart.hu/products/403823532-ancient-india-a-captivating-guide-to-ancient-indian-history-starting) --- *Product available on Desertcart Hungary* *Store origin: HU* *Last updated: 2026-09-06*
