Jataka Tales Out Of Old India is a book that contains a collection of ancient Indian folk tales that are part of the Jataka tradition. The Jataka tales are stories about the previous lives of the Buddha and the various moral lessons that can be learned from them.

The stories are filled with colorful characters, including animals, gods, and humans, and they cover a wide range of themes, such as compassion, wisdom, and generosity. The book is illustrated with beautiful black and white drawings that bring the tales to life. Overall, Jataka Tales Out Of Old India is a delightful book that offers readers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of India and the timeless wisdom of the Jataka tales.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
