Publisher's Synopsis
Documentary series charting the way the Ganges has shaped India's religion, culture and wildlife. The series follows the river from its beginnings high in the Himalayas, flowing south onto the foothills of India's Northern Plain before veering eastwards, finally discharging into the Bay of Bengal. The sacred role that the river plays in the lives of millions of Hindus is examined, in addition to exploring the rich and varied collection of wildlife to be found along its shores.
