Nagaland: A Journey to India's Forgotten Frontier

Jonathan Glancey

3.3/5 ( ratings)

Nagaland has been fighting a secret, often brutal, war for independence for more than half a century. Portrayed as either a land of ruthless guerillas or exotic natives, Nagaland is in fact a complex and divided region, with an incredible history. The breathtaking Naga hills take us to the offices of Adolf Hitler and Emperor Hirohito, via well-meaning colonialists and anthropologists, and one of the most important battles of the Second World War. Through extensive travels beyond the tourist zone, the voices of Nagas he meets, and his family's links with the region, Jonathan Glancey tell the true story of this forgotten land.

Language: English
