Howard explores the various liturgical rites used by the Saint Thomas Christians, including the East Syrian, West Syrian, and Malabar rites, and discusses their similarities and differences. He also examines the role of music in the liturgy and the use of various instruments, such as the harmonium and the violin. The book includes translations of important liturgical texts and hymns, as well as illustrations and photographs of liturgical objects and practices.
