A unique food-and-travel-guide, Indian & Chinese Cooking from the Himalayan Rim features over 200 authentic recipes for the adventurous cook. When exploring a land's cuisine, Copeland Marks' trademark method is to immerse himself in the culture, spending months cooking with its best chefs, professional cooks, and home cooks.
