The Wonder That Was India: A Survey of the Culture of the Indian Sub-Continent Before the Coming of the Muslims, is a book on Indian history written by Arthur Llewellyn Basham and first published in 1954. It is a thematic survey of the civilization in the Indian subcontinent from ancient to the establishment of Muslim rule around 1200 CE. The book was written for an "ordinary Western reader who has little knowledge of the subject, but some interest in it". In the book, Basham has attempted to correct the negative stereotypes of India created by authors like James Mill, Thomas Babington Macaulay and Vincent Arthur Smith.
