Ganges: Along Sacred Waters by Aldo Pavan

India's holiest river, the Ganges, winds some 1,550 miles through the country, from its headwaters in the Himalayan glaciers past the villages and cities of the Gangetic Plain to the Delta's thousand fingers in the Bay of Bengal. Here, Aldo Pavan and his camera trace the route of this sacred river, capturing its beauty and its many different phases and moods.
