This informative book documents visits by foreign dignitaries to India from 1947 to 1967. Filled with little known anecdotes and rare photographs, this introduces an interesting aspect of diplomacy to the common public. This beautifully designed and well researched book is authored by Dr. Thomas Mathew, Additional Secretary to The President. The book gives a glimpse of the life ‘under the dome’ and takes the reader through some of the lesser known pages of the history.
