Made in Kolkata

Description

Review These cherishable guides are a gold mine of local know how. I was so impressed. For one thing, it's their appearance: each is hand-bound using old Indian paper making techniques, with a hand-woven, khadi cover. Caulfield's local knowledge is compelling, especially her encyclopaedic shopping savvy - always handy in India. I'll never shop in India again without her. The loving way she compiled them is a rarity --UK Financial Times Read more About the Author Fiona Caulfield is the creator of the Love Travel India series of hand-crafted guide books.
