If you are planning to visit Ahmedabad or even if you live there, here is a really useful pocket sized book to get to know the city better.
Published in 2017, A Walking Tour. Ahmedabad is by M van Oostrum and G Bracken. Easy to follow walks take you through the history of Ahmedabad. If you do not wish to follow the walks, this is no problem because the book is well indexed. The book is illustrated with lovely delicate line drawings.
I bought my copy at the excellent bookshop at the Gandhi Ashram on the bank of the Sabarmati, where I was charged 595 Rupees. If you buy it in Europe or the USA, expect to pay far more!
I strongly recommend this book as a very readable and practical guide to the endlessly fascinating city of Ahmedabad.
