Northeast India by Vanessa Betts
Northeast India is a region off the usual tourist route, yet it contains some of the country's most beautiful scenery, remarkable religious monuments and vibrant cultural centres. Footprint's new guide, the first of its kind to this little-known part of the sub-continent, takes you to the Orissan temples of Puri, Bhubaneswar and Konark, the interior of Bihar and Jharkhand, where some tribal societies are only just being brought into contact with the modern world, and the mighty peaks of the Himalaya to the north, with Kangchendzonga towering over Sikkim and the northern hill stations of West Bengal.
South India-born and raised in the vibrant suburbs of Peterborough, writer and photographer David Stott acquired his taste for India in the womb. At the age of 28 he finally discovered the variety and diversity of flavours at which butter chicken had merely hinted and since his first visit he's become an annual visitor to India, steadily learning to tell his chole from his bhature and establishing a serious addiction to masala dosas along the way. David now splits his time between India and his adopted home in vibrant suburban Sydney, where the pace of life is such that he occasionally has to pinch himself to make sure he's awake.
