The bibliography lists only those works which have proved of most help in writing the text. It is divided into seven sections. The first section lists mainly general histories, and the remaining six correspond to groups of chapters. The periodisation of Indian history into ‘classical’, ‘medieval’ and so on has not been used in the text but, since much extant scholarship falls into these categories, they have been resurrected for the chapter groupings in the bibliography.
The following abbreviations are used in the chapter groupings and refer to works specified in full in the General section:

HOIBIOH – The History of India as Told by its Own Historians (ed. Elliot, H.M. and Dowson, J.)
