About this title

Review:

Beautifully photographed pictorial alphabet which replaces Kiplingesque view of the Subcontinent with vibrant images of contemporary Indian life. (Independent)

This book is a refreshing change from the many detailed, often tedious, accounts of life in a foreign country. (Junior Education)

Informative and a useful addition to the study of the Indian subcontinent. (www.writeaway.org.uk)
