Hindu Places of Pilgrimage in India: A Study in Cultural Geography
Surinder Mohan Bhardwaj
Combining historical analysis with his own fieldwork, Dr. Bhardwaj not only established the importance of the institution of pilgrimage in Indian history and the persistence of similar distribution patterns of sacred places over long periods, but also furnished the normative background for contemporary practices. He examines both the historical and the contemporary patterns of pilgrimage at various levels - pan-Hindu, supra-egional, sub-regional and local.
