Paper is undeniably a vehicle for the flowering of Indian art, literature, history and religion, but where did it come from? Who made it and how? What was their inspiration? How has this ancient craft survived in today's India? Comprehensive and detailed, this book traces the nearly thousand-year history of hand paper-making in India.
