His nephew is Wing Commander Oak (forget first name) and he's done some extensive research into <i>Naadi-shastra</i> and has a decent book on it.

His contributions to provoking new thinking on hindu civilizational history are remarkable and a veritable rebuttal of witzelisms. He was a patriot, firm in his conviction of the antiquity and universality of hindu civilization, driven by an indefatigable quest for removing the distortions in bharatiya itihaas by motivated, principally eurocentric zealots.

His books:

"ï‚·  Christianity is Chrisn-nity,
ï‚·  Islamic Havoc in India (A. Ghosh Publisher, 5740 W. Little York, Houston, Texas, 77091)
ï‚·  The Taj Mahal Is a Temple Place (Alternate title, The Taj Mahal is a Hindu Palace, Hindi Sahitya Sadan, New Delhi)
ï‚·  Who Says Akbar Was Great? (Hindi Sahitya Sadan, New Delhi)
ï‚·  Agra Red Fort is a Hindu Building (Hindi Sahitya Sadan, New Delhi)
ï‚·  Some Blunders of Indian Historical Research (Hindi Sahitya Sadan, New Delhi)
