Heritage Himachal is exhaustively researched, profusely illustrated and written in the author’s distinctive and enjoyable style. Long before the time that the word ‘Himachal’ was coined, these hills came replete with extraordinary history and culture. Moving from ancient times and the colonial years, this book weaves together the different strands that make Himachal Pradesh one of the most remarkable places on our planet.
