Introduction--North--Central--East--West--South--Glossary--Acknowledgements--Photo credits--Index.
The nature of crafts production in India is both ephemeral and resilient. India's crafts journey resembles the progress of a river from the mountains to the ocean, picking up material, depositing some, changes course, disappearing underground to surface somewhere else. Yet, the tradition continues forever. The vibrant illustrations and academically rich content are recreated as an atlas of India's crafts, handmade textiles and traditional arts, covering India's cultural history. Crafts Atlas of India is therefore a unique documentation and a rare visual treat. BOOK JACKET
