Namasté, all,
I've read some parts of the Śatapatha Brāhmaṇa online at the Sacred Texts archive; their text was translated by one Julius Eggeling in the late 19th century, and the introduction explains that this is the only complete translation available. Do they mean the only complete translation extant online/in the public domain, or is this indeed the one English translation available anywhere?
Also, are there any good books - either discussing the text, excerpting it, or both - that anyone might recommend?
I'm very grateful that this text is provided on the Internet, but always prefer to read things offline, and would love to have a printed book on the subject (and/or with parts of the text). Any help would be much appreciated...
