Paperback. Condition: Near Fine. City of Djinns (1994) by William Dalrymple ? Flamingo Edition Sold by Crappy Old Books ? Where the pages might be foxed, but the prose is fierce. In City of Djinns , William Dalrymple blends history, travel, and wry British self-deprecation into a vivid portrait of Delhi ? a city layered with centuries of chaos, conquest, and charm. From ancient Mughal ruins to 1990s bureaucratic tangle, Dalrymple peels back the capital?s many skins with the help of taxi drivers, eunuchs, civil servants, and cranky landladies. It?s part travelogue, part historical excavation, and part comedy of modern manners ? all with that signature Dalrymple flair. Our copy? Let?s call it ?historically authentic.? Bent spine, sun-faded cover, and possibly a few crumbs from a long-forgotten train ride through Rajasthan. Just the way we like it. Crappy Old Books ? Polished books are for amateurs. Appears to be signed.

Signed first edition (First edition, first printing, signed by the author) THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLERA Waterstones and TIMES HISTORY BOOK OF THE YEARA SPECTATOR and History Today BOOK OF THE YEAR A revolutionary new history of the diffusion of Indian ideas, from the award-winning, bestselling author and co-host of the chart-topping Empire podcast‘Richly woven, highly readable . Written with passion and verve’ Spectator‘Dazzling . Not just a historical study but also a love letter’ Guardian‘An outstanding new account . The most compelling retelling we have had for generations’ Financial TimesIndia is the forgotten heart of the ancient world.For a millennium and a half, India was a confident exporter of its diverse civilisation, creating around it a vast empire of ideas. Indian art, religions, technology, astronomy, music, dance, literature, mathematics and mythology blazed a trail across the world, along a Golden Road that stretched from the Red Sea to the Pacific.William Dalrymple draws from a lifetime of scholarship to highlight India’s oft-forgotten position as the heart of ancient Eurasia. For the first time, he gives a name to this spread of Indian ideas that transformed the world. From the largest Hindu temple in the world at Angkor Wat to the Buddhism of China, from the trade that helped fund the Roman Empire to the creation of the numerals we use today (including zero), India transformed the culture and technology of its ancient world – and our world today as we know it.Praise for William Dalrymple and The Anarchy‘A superb historian with a visceral understanding of India’ The Times‘Magnificently readable, deeply researched and richly atmospheric’ Francis Wheen, Mail on Sunday.

hard. Condition: fine. Dust Jacket Condition: fine. Signed first edition (First edition, first printing, signed by the author) ‘Photography for me is not looking, it’s feeling. If you can’t feel what you’re looking at, then you’re never going to get others to feel anything when they look at your pictures’ – Don McCullinJourneys Across Roman Asia Minor is driven by an eye for beauty and an ear for history. It is an album of the most recent photographs taken by Don McCullin, informed by a life full of hard-won experience. Working the ineffable magic of a master-craftsman, he frames an ancient sanctuary known to Homer, then focuses on the broken face of an exhausted emperor, before turning his eye on the sensuous torso of a goddess.While most of us were sheltering from Covid, Don explored the mountains, valleys and coast of western Turkey, hunting out the most poignant and powerful ruins of the Roman Empire. He has created a meditation on landscape, the effects of light on ancient stone, the way clouds animate the past, but it is also inescapably about past conflict. About conquest, about imperium, about power.Journeys across Roman Asia Minor shows us a world still packed full of enchantment and wonder. He shows us pavements once trodden by Aristotle and Alexander the Great, Caesar and Sulla, St Paul and Hadrian. Through his lens we view ancient theatres cascading down the slopes of mountains, two-thousand-year-old bridges still used by hill farmers, and find spring water flowing into fountains still dominated by statues of the gods.
