Enjoyable trip with the author across the major east-west road of the Indian subcontinent. Written in the 1990s but I'm sure some things are still the same nearly 20 years later. You feel like you're actually in the old car with Weller and his driver, dealing with wild truck drivers, heat, dilapidated motels, ancient and recent historical sites, and a wealth of people met along the way.

A phenomenal travelogue that pulls you into the car and takes you along.
