Descrizione
About The Book -: The book offers a piercing insight into the culture of Benares as seen through the eyes of a European, telling why it has been for over two and a half thousand years a pre-eminent sacred city of Hindus. Benaras is one of the most valuable and informative works on the ancient city. The author himself a resident of Benaras for several years, traces the pilgrims' travels with a remarkable eye for detail, intelligently critiquing their customs, rituals and ceremonies. Written in simple and elegant prose, Benaras not only captures the evolution of the city, it evokes its soul.
