Yet, Gujarat in western India, where they originated, is hardly known or visited by foreign and Indian tourists. Adam Yamey's richly illustrated book describes his travels through Gujarat and two former Portuguese colonies, Daman, and Diu, with his wife. Her knowledge of Gujarati allowed the travellers to speak with locals and gain their insightful views about Gujarat's past, present, and future.

Meet the people and discover places whose beauty rivals the better-known sights of India. ++ This book will be of great interest to tourists.
