I've read quite a number of books in preparation for this trip. I wish I had more time to read, but that's that. Maybe I'll get something done over Shabbos.
About India:
Lonely Planet India
Frommer's India
India - Culture Smart!: a quick guide to customs and etiquette
Delhi, Agra & Jaipur (Eyewitness Travel Guides)
Delhi, Jaipur and Agra Travel Pack (Globetrotter Travel Packs)
The Britannica Guide to India
A Traveller's History of India
The Oxford History of India (didn't finish, long)
White Mughals (excellent book, but no time to finish)
About Tibet and Tibetan Buddhism in Exile in India:
Symbols of Tibetan Buddhism
The Jew in the Lotus: A Poet's Rediscovery of Jewish Identity in Buddhist India
The Dance of 17 Lives: The Incredible True Story of Tibet's 17th Karmapa
Karmapa: The Politics of Reincarnation
Buddha's Not Smiling : Uncovering Corruption at the Heart of Tibetan Buddhism Today
Rogues in Robes: An Inside Chronicle of a Recent Chinese-Tibetan Intrigue in the Karma Kagyu Lineage of Diamond Way Buddhism
Still have some books on my shelf that I might get to on Shabbos, but that's about it. I'm taking the Frommer's and the Travel Pack with me to India.
