Superbly evocative, sympathetic and well written.,

This review is from: Resorts of the Raj: Hill Stations of India (Hardcover)
This is not a coffee table picture book even though the photography is very good. This book is far more than that. It is a very sympathetic, well researched and superbly evocative pictorial and architectural history of the British in the Hill Stations of India. It is the work of a man who understands thoroughly his country and its history and who can relate its past and its relationship with the present without fear, favour or prejudice. Interwoven with humour and vignettes of the society of The Raj this is a well balanced, informative and most enjoyable book. I recommend it to all who care for India and its fascinating history.
