Description: Hi! You're looking at an excellent condition book which is RARE, hard to find and OUT OF PRINT and a wonderful collection of impressions and drawings of India written and illustrated by GEORGE BIDDLE--the book is a collectible STATED FIRST PRINTING and a HARDCOVER with the ORIGINAL DUSTJACKET and is NOT a remainder copy and NOT price-clipped, with the original $10.00 price in the upper corner of the front inner flap. This book is in excellent overall condition and is a former library copy with typical markings and a mylar plastic sleeve on the dustjacket, which is attached to the boards; the book has a few light abrasions on the lower edges of the covers, a slight 3/4 inch split on the upper right edge of the front board and just light shelfwear and light evidence of gentle browsing but no other significant flaws! The book is titled Indian Impressions and it was written by GEORGE BIDDLE; it was published by The Orion Press in 1975 and is a STATED 1st PRINTING copy.These are an artist's impressions of India, and because he author is the distinguished American artist George Biddle, the result is a sensitive portrait of this nation. George Biddle has seen India, and, through both his text and his drawings, the reader too will understand and see this land of contrasts. Biddle's talks with political and religious leaders such as Nehru, Krishna Menon and Acharya Vinobaji as well as his meetings with Indian artists, holy men and peasants have been reported with insight and understanding; his many drawings capture, as no words can, the spirit of India. This volume stands as a unique contribution to our understanding of an ever-fascinating land.A fantastic find, and a beautiful copy of this book!Thanks for looking, and good luck if you're bidding!
