The present book is a laudable attempt to study the folk literature and folk arts of the Banjara-Lambanis, one of the original tribes of ‘real’ India. Dr. Naik explores the so far unknown facets of Lambani folk literature and arts comprehensively-folk songs, narrative songs, folk tales, proverbs, dance, Rangoli, embroidery, tattooing and folk dramas. In this book he establishes "a realm of study in which one could spend a lifetime with pleasure", mapping the whole world of Banjara-Lambanis’ oral tradition. So this book is highly useful to the academics and interesting to the laymen.
