4.0 out of 5 stars
Lively view of little known route,
By Jussi (Turku, Finland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Grand Trunk Road: From the front seat (Paperback)
This book really brought alive an area which is lesser known by western travellers. Imaginative and vivid descriptions. I particularly liked the humour and the unexpected nature of travelling in such an area. Many interesting books come out of India, and they are not that well known to us in the western countries.

This review is from: The Grand Trunk Road: From the front seat (Paperback)
I purchased this book because of its eye catching title but was disappointed after reading a few pages. I was also under the impression that the writer will describe in detail the famous GT road and his experiences while traveling on it. Instead there is more about famous cities of the sub continent and that too written weakly. There are numerous other books written very well. Don't get confused with the title.

grand trunk trash,
By subhadip "sub'c" (Shillong, India) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Grand Trunk Road: From the front seat (Paperback)
If one prefers good travel writing, skip this book.One of the most boring travelogues I have ever had the misfortune to read. Mr. Bach starts with good intentions, but then loses the whole plot. Is travel writng only about ones travelling or should it carry a bit of history of the place, of one's thoughts. Mr Bach could do well to read Paul Theroux, Alexander Frater and all before he writes another book. Its good to be a India lover, but thats all that there is to Mr Bach.
