Sindhnamah

A landmark publication for the Sindhi community, Sindhnamah is a large-format illustrated book about the rich cultural heritage and history of Sindh and the Sindhi people. Written in an engaging style, Sindhnamah showcases the beautiful treasures of their original homeland: its landscapes, waterways and wildlife; its arts and crafts, textiles and jewellery; its splendid architectural wealth; its music and cuisine; the many faces of its religions; and its colourful history and folklore. It also celebrates the compassionate spirit of humanism that is such a significant aspect of Sindhi culture. Widely researched and imaginatively designed with a variety of stunning images - colonial-period paintings, lithographs and maps; Mughal-era miniature paintings and illustrated manuscripts; historic photographs from family albums; and vivid pictures of contemporary Sindh - Sindhnamah is the first book to extensively showcase the many-splendoured facets of Sindh and the Sindhi people. Sindhnamah is a unique gateway to Sindhi culture, and also a wonderful opportunity for Sindhis and others, whether in India, Pakistan or across the globe, to rediscover their magnificent heritage and history
