  Parvez Dewan can send you to sleep about Jammu, Kashmir and Ladakh. If anyone has the Ultimate Dossier on this region, it is he, after years of running about India`s northernmost state, administering and adventuring his way around its valleys, peaks and rivers. While his quest for leopards (snow-as well as plain) and black-necked cranes was personal (and not always successful), sometimes he got paid to do what he loved doing anyway. As the Vice Chairman of the Lakes and Waterways Development Authority he cleaned up a portion of Anchar, a lake that is right within Srinagar and yet not widely known, to show that a new tourist destination could be created extremely inexpensively. He also demonstrated that cruises on the Tsunt i Kol and even the Jehlum were still possible. His efforts endeared him to the underprivileged community that lives within the Dal Lake, members of which he counts among his close friends. Ladakh`s famous Pangong and Tsomo Riri lakes were out of bounds to casual civilian tourists till he got them `de-restricted` : a decision he has not always been happy about, for reasons of ecology. In Jammu he introduced yachting on Lake Mansar and promoted it for tourism. Above all, he studied the sacred groves of the area. In this book, which covers (almost) every aspect of the wildlife, fauna, lakes and rivers of Jammu, Kashmir and Ladakh, Parvez Dewan shares in detail his excitement and interest in the fabled land that has been the arena of his adult life : through an up-to-date yet timeless guide to the magical trinity of Jammu, Kashmir and Ladakh that crowns the sub-continent of India.ISBN - 9788170494256
