Started in 1907, An Historical Sketch was a work in 3 volumes. The author was a British diplomat posted to Asia and his great work was interrupted by World War I, finally being published in 1921. It has been described as the definitive work on the subject and the style is easy to read and follow. In this, the third, volume, Eliot examines Buddhism outside India, and the interaction between eastern and western religions. - Summary by Lynne Thompson (18 hr 33 min)
