Description
An account of Geoffrey Moorhouse's three-month journey through southern India, ranging from scenes of beauty to poverty-stricken despair, from encounters with politicians and princes to faith-healers and beggars.This is where India begins. On this curve of land, whose stained shore is washed by the jade green sea, an entire subcontinent is poised as if upon a sharpened point. Navigators rounded it in ancient times when extending the boundaries of the known world, among them the Greeks, whose geographer Ptolemy identified this extremity . . . .ultimate Komari.
