Description
With its magnificent terrain, Ladakh has enchanted tourists and explorers over the years. Ladakh is a land of natural wonders. Amidst seemingly endless swathes of barren landscape are micro patches of astonishing greenery. Descriptions of lakes, passes, valleys and several famous and not-so-famous rivers make this book a delightful read. Romesh Bhattacharjis LADAKH: changing, yet unchanged contains a wealth of infor- mation on various aspects of Ladakh, including its terrain, history, people, native customs and the changes it went through in the last four decades. It also explores the ways in which Ladakhis have adapted to modern life, joining professions such as medicine, engineering, writing and more. Relevant and well-timed, this immensely readable book is not only helpful for academics, but also a pleasure for the general reader.
