.River Dog: A Journey Down the Brahmaputra
City Travel Guides > Books > Bangladesh
by: Mark Shand

May 01, 2003
Mark Shand has a unique way of narrating his amazing journeys. Very descriptive and atmostpheric. You just want to keep turning the pages as you travel with him and can't wait, like him, to see what's around the next corner. This is definately the book for the armchair traveller. I'm always sorry when his adventures end.

.Songs at the River's Edge: Stories from a Bangladeshi Village
City Travel Guides > Books > Bangladesh
by: Katy Gardner

1997-04
Katy Gardner spent enough time with a family in Bangladesh to give us an account of life in a village that is fascinating, colourful and empathetic. She wears her anthropological training lightly and conveys the rhythms and reasons of the lives of her hosts so well. Makes tourism seem very thin and pale!

.Colours of Survival: Discovering Hope in Bangladesh
City Travel Guides > Books > Bangladesh
by: Adrian Plass, Bridget Plass

January 25, 2001
Having just returned from 3 months' teaching in Dhaka, I find it very difficult to describe to my friends and family what life there was like. Luckily Adrian Plass and his wife Bridget have hit the nail right on the head with this hugely entertaining yet heart-rending book. Especially in the brilliant poem describing the kids rapping at the car window and the guilt you feel that comes from the feeling of helplessness of not being able to give to every grubby child or cripple that begs for money - it's exactly how I felt every day of being there. I find many Christian writers a bit heavy-going but the great thing about Plass is that you can really identify with everything he says. This book paints a wonderfully accurate picture of Bangladesh - I'd recommend ... Read More:

.Field Guide to the Mammals of the Indian Subcontinent: Where to Watch Mammals in India, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Pakistan (Academic Press Natural World)
City Travel Guides > Books > Bangladesh
by: KK Gurung

November 30, 2007
This book covers the land mammals of the Indian Subregion or in other words it cover: India, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Pakistan. However, it also does exclude the smaller and often inconspicious mammals like baths, shrews, and most rodents. A number of small but often conspicious mammals are included. For instance both squirrels and pikas are included. In total it depicts and describes 106 species in deatail. It starts in the typical manner with an introduction to the region, mammals, and mammal observing. This section is highly usefull to the unexperienced reader, but will probably seem quite borring to most, as it is short and only mentiones the most basal things. The next fourty pages is devoted to the mammal species themselves. This means ... Read More:
