5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent Overview of the development of Zoroastrianism in India.,
This review is from: Treasure of the Magi: A Study of Modern Zoroastrianism (Paperback)
This is a very good book on the Parsis version of Zoroastrianism as practiced in India. It includes the history and development as well as how the religion is still flourishing in modern times. Very interesting.
