Reddit mentions of Sources of Indian Tradition: Modern India and Pakistan (Vol. 2)

A good place to start for novice historians is always the History Sourcebook out of Fordham University. Here is the link for the Indian history section.


A comprehensive look at some primary sources from Indian history can be found in the multivolume Sources of Indian Tradition, edited by Ainslie Embree, vol. I here and vol. II here.


Alain Danielou provides a brief overview of Indian history here. A more controversial look at Indian history through sub-altern studies can be found in the work of Partha Chaterjee, whose works are listed on his wiki page.

I hope this helps a little. Happy reading!
