India: The Journey of a Lifetime
ISBN: 9780595338566 / Angielski / Miękka / 172 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "How do you describe a cool spring rain on your face? Impossible That's how it is when I try to describe what it feels like to be in India. Most words seem useless; adjectives that might otherwise be appropriate miss the mark. I have felt this way for a long time until I read Ivonne Delaflor's book "India, The Journey of a Lifetime." Finally, someone else was able to describe the magic, beauty, mystery and heart of India that so many others have failed to fully capture. This book is an opportunity to see the guru in every face. This is the message her books impart more than any other: God,...

Stones of Empire: The Buildings of the Raj
ISBN: 9780192805966 / Angielski / Miękka / 243 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. No empire in history built so variously as the British empire in India. The buildings there attest to the richness of an imperial presence that lasted--from the first trading settlement to the end of the Raj--some three hundred years. The attitude of the British to India was compounded partly of arrogance, but partly also of homesickness, and it shows in their constructions. Georgian terraces were adapted to tropical conditions, Victorian railway stations were elaborately orientalized, seaside villas were adjusted to suit Himalayan conditions, and everywhere the fundamental ambivalence of the...
