I learned so much about the Ganga’s cultural significance. The writing is engaging, although I wished there was more focus on the river’s present-day challenges.

I was truly moved by Hampl’s portrayal of the Ganga. It’s a powerful reminder of the importance of preserving our natural resources. Definitely a must-read!

While informative, I found the book to be somewhat dry and academic. It lacked the personal touch I was hoping for. Not for everyone.

Hampl does an excellent job of portraying the Ganga’s multifaceted role in Indian society. A must-read for anyone interested in Indian history and culture. Highly recommended!

A mixed bag. Some chapters were captivating, while others felt dry and repetitive. Still, a worthwhile read if you’re interested in the topic.
Shruti Rathi –
This book offers a comprehensive look at the Ganga’s history. Although detailed, it could be overwhelming for casual readers. It a lengthy book.
Mathews Manoj –
An okay book. It was informative, but the writing style didn’t quite captivate me. I was hoping for more personal anecdotes and less academic jargon.
Abhishek Chaudhary –
An incredible journey through the history of the Ganga! Hampl’s writing is both informative and engaging. I couldn’t put it down! One of the best books I’ve read this year.

A fascinating read about the Ganga! Hampl beautifully weaves together history, religion, and ecology. Sometimes it felt a bit dense, but overall very insightful.
