Bobbie Kalman's 'INDIA' books offer excellent geographic surveys suitable for libraries

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago

Bobbie Kalman's 'INDIA' books offer excellent geographic surveys suitable for libraries where country studies are done. Each 32-page book pairs contemporary photos with plenty of facts. INDIA THE CULTURE surveys the religious and cultural influences on India, while INDIA THE PEOPLE covers family life, homes, village life, rural and urban living, and social issues. Both are fine picks for any library strong in India culture.
