This compact monograph had begun its journey as a lecture delivered in 1982, in the memory of late Dr. Biman Behari Majumdar. Subsequently it had been revised and somewhat enlarged. As a result, it had evolved into a text with the following sections:
Chapter I: The Country of Pancala and the City of Kanyakubja
Chapter II: The Theory of Tripartite Struggle and the Importance of the Ayudhas
Chapter III: The Gauda-Kanyakubja Struggle from the Sixth to the Eighth Century A.D
Appendix I: The Problem of the Harsha Era
Chapter IV: The Gurjara-Pratiharas and the Palas
Chapter V: The Gahadavalas and the Palas and Senas
Appendix II: The Gurjara-Pratiharas and the Rastrakutas
The text is not a linear construct comprising of history of people and places. Instead it's a critical look at existing and canonical versions of events that act as hallmark of Early Medieval India. It's not very easy to read. But it acts as a solid reference for the study of this period.
