Product Description
Product Description
During the first week of February 1995 many of the sub-continent's photojournalists and film makers fanned out across India to record for posterity and adventure of enormous fascination and complexity - a visual time capsule of one of the world's most diverse nations. Under the editorial guidance of internationally acclaimed writer, ecologist and film maker Michael Tobias, and renowned Indian photographer Raghu Rai, photographic teams visited nearly every state and union territory to discover the elusive patterns of a country that defies easy definition.

Beautiful book showing many aspects of India.
1 Sep 1998
Format:Hardcover
This is a beautiful "coffee table" book about India. It is filled with pictures from all over the country, and all photos were taken by native Indians who know and respect the country. There is a short descriptive paragraph associated with each picture which tells the nature of the photo and where it was taken. Another nice feature is that for each picture, a map of India is shown with a mark where the picture was taken. This is especially useful for someone unfamiliar with the geography. I heartily recommend this book!

A Peek into the everyday lives of Indians
16 Feb 1999
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
While many photography books about India focus on the landscape and monuments, this book focuses on the people living in this great land. From tending to the fields to attending grade school, the pictures are a glimpse into what India is really about.
