Summary:In shaping the Indian culture, Hinduism has made its own unique contribution. This contribution is displayed in the magni- ficent array of Sacred Scriptures right from the Vedic times. A ma- jor portion of this impressive contribution has been catalogued by Dr. James A. Santucci in his beautiful little book called Outline of Vedic Literature, which contains a conspectus of the various sacred scriptures of the Sruti section of the Vedic scriptural tra- dition.The speciality of the work is that it provides simple and graphic accounts about each book along with other relevant infor- mation concerning the basic question discussed in each book. It also contains bibliographical data of works, related to the Vedic Scriptures such as their editions, translations etc. The systematic arrangement of the titles gives at one glance a neat comprehensive view of this grand section of Vedic literature which lies scattered around the world.
