Book Name in English : The Divine Romance

In his quest to govern India by moral froce alone, India's Ashoka Maurya turned Buddhism from a minor sect into a world religion and setup a new yardstick for government. But his brave experiment ended in tragedy and his name was cleansed from the record so effecively that he was forgotten for almost two thousand years. Only a few mysterious stone monuments and inscriptions survived, and the story of how these keystones to the past were discovered and deciphered is every bit as remarkable as their author himself.
