This is a list of over 150+ books on hinduism, tamil, temples, scriptures, temples and history etc. that I have compiled from Google books.
This has taken me several weeks of searching and organizing.
This is not the complete list. There are more but I don't have the time to organize them.
Note that there is a link called 'related books' for each book where you can get more books that are related to similar topics.
Other important books that I have collected are detailed information on temples, holy places, texts, chola/pallava/pandya information (history, social life, economy, achievement, literature, temples etc)
About the temples in thanjavur, madurai, kanchipuram, chidambaram, rameshwaram, etc
palm leaf manuscripts, copper plate inscriptions, temple inscriptions, archaeological studies etc
I will add to this when i find time.
Please add to this and make it more comprehensive.
My aim is to make a comprehensive searchable database that is free and easily accessible.
If you have any of these books please let me know.
Note: The problem here is that I have not read these books. Therefore, I don't know how many are true/unbiased and how many are biased (written by phony indologist/scholars with the intention of misleading or degrading our history).
Therefore, Please add what you know so that we would know the truth behind these books and authors.
