An excellent book

A concise work with lots of data about Gautama Buddha and Theravada Buddhism. It is a book I treasure a whole lot.

The best historical account in Buddhism

This is the most accurate, best written, historical account of Shakiamuni Buddha and his teachings. It is regarded as the clearest and most detailed introductions to the fundamental teachings of Buddhism available in English. Venerable Narada explains the doctrines as they have been preserved in the Theravada tradition. A MUST read, for begginers,seasoned practitioners and anyone interested in Buddhist philosophy.
