Overview
This is Volume 7 of the English prose translation of the Mahabharata by Kisari Mohan Ganguli, based on the original Sanskrit text by Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa. The Mahabharata is one of the two major Sanskrit epics of ancient India. The epic narrates the Kurukshetra War and the fates of the Kaurava and the Pandava princes.
