These include the people and how they live, the climate, landscapes, towns and cities, plus chapters on what the country produces. A full-colour map details major geographical features and places pictured in the book. Each title has an index and notes to explain how to use the book. India looks at life in the cities and countryside of this vast sub-continent. Stunning photographs show the fabulous temples of the Hindu faith and the colourful way of life of the people.
