India: A Story through 100 Objects by Vidya Dehejia | In conversation with William Dalrymple

"India: A Story through 100 Objects" is a richly illustrated book that focuses on 100 objects to tell a story of India that unravels in a series of thematic sections that allow the objects to take center-stage. The 100 objects shed light on the varying priorities and the differing strands of achievement that arose over time to create the rich multi-cultural medley that is today’s India.
