		Mohan PaiÂ’s The Western Ghats is an attempt to fill the gap in the current literature available on the Sahyadris.
		He soon moves on to topography and geography, flits over the human history (from as far back as the Palaeolithic age) of the tribes who still call the Sahyadris their home, and finally lands feet firmly planted in the wilderness.
		The reader is taken on a whirlwind voyage down the rivers of the Western Ghats before slowing down to catch his/her breath while exploring its vegetation, forests and Protected Areas, and wildlife.

		Yes, India’s many hillstations have been favoured destinations for travellers for centuries - for Mughal emperors who annually shifted entire courts northwards; for the British who yearned for cooler climes; and more so today, for Indian tourists who look for places to escape the heat of the simmering plains.
		India’s hillstations sprawl across the country- from the many pine-scented hamlets cradled in the snowy lap of the mighty Himalayas to the tea-garden, spice-plantation towns of the Nilgiris in the south and the ever-popular resorts nestled in the Sahyadris.
		They’re all there, with a fantastic array of features: quaint old colonial churches, quiet tea estates, ancient temples, panoramic views- and a guarantee of great holidays, each and every time you come visiting.
