Description

A treasury of cartographic splendour, India Through Iconic Maps presents over 250 exquisite maps – many never before published – spanning the subcontinent’s rich history from ancient cosmographies to the watershed 1947 Partition.

From imaginative renderings of Jain and Hindu cosmographs to hand-drawn maps of Gujarati seafarers, and... from Maratha fortifications against the Mughals and the British, to the artistic grandeur of sacred journeys, for the first time, this book takes you on an 800-year expedition of human curiosity, adventure, and discovery.

With its impressive format and museum-quality reproductions, this volume is an essential addition to the library of anyone fascinated by cartography, South Asian history, or the power of maps to shape our understanding of place and identity.
