5.0 out of 5 stars
Exquisitely Done!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Knopf Guide: India, Rajasthan (Knopf Guides) (Paperback)
This book is worth purchasing if just for the drawing/maps. I've rarely seen their equal. The information about each fort, palace and temple is illustrated and the sections on artists and authors related works is wonderful. You see things so clearly you can make up your own mind where to go. Aesthetically pleasing.

Knopf Guide India : Rajasthan : Jaipur, Bikaner, Jaisalmer,,
By A Customer
This review is from: Knopf Guide: India, Rajasthan (Knopf Guides) (Paperback)
Knopf has compiled a typically excellent guide that will be as useful and interesting to read after the trip as it is during. If anything, the guidebook is better as a post-trip reference manual than a guide becuase it is so packed with information, photographs and drawings. The information is accurate and detailed. Because it is not a typical guide (does not list attractions in a bullet-point sort of way), should be purchased if you are deciding to go to India or in addition to a more by-the-numbers guide.Like all the Knopf Guides, I recommend it highly.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Knopf Guide: India, Rajasthan (Knopf Guides) (Paperback)
India has long been on my must-visit list, and after reading this gorgeous book, another in a lovely series that Knopf publishes, my appetite has been re-whetted. But even if you're strictly an armchair traveler, this book will satisfy as an informative if idealized picture of Rajasthan, the most romantic state of India. I hope Knopf produces more books on the rest of India soon.
