Slowly Down the Ganges

‘Slowly Down the Ganges’ is seen as a vintage Newby masterpiece, alongside ‘A Short Walk in the Hindu Kush’ and ‘Love and War in the Apennines’. Told with Newby's self-deprecating humour and wry attention to detail, this is a classic of the genre and a window into an enchanting piece of history.

,,Slowly Down the Ganges" este vazuta ca o capodopera vintage Newby, alaturi de ,,O scurta plimbare in Hindu Kush" si ,,Dragoste si razboi in Apenini". Povestit cu umorul autodepreciant al lui Newby si atentia ironica la detalii, acesta este un clasic al genului si o fereastra catre o bucata incantatoare de istorie.
