Know about the book -

The Goddesses' Henchmen is written by Lindsey Harlan and published by Oxford University Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0195348346 (ISBN 10) and 9780195348347 (ISBN 13).

This book examines the worship of ancestral heroes in Rajasthan, India. Arguing that Rajput hero stories and songs encapsulate and express ideals of perfection and masculinity, it analyzes representations of wives and goddesses as tacit allies dispatching sacrificed heroes to heavenly paradise (Virgati) and rendering them Bherujis, their goddesses' divine henchmen.
