Paperback / Hardback

How on earth did Stephen Huyler find himself pedaling a bicycle rickshaw through the Indian border on his twentieth birthday?

Intriguing stories like this define Huyler’s life and his metamorphosis into a leading documentarian of the cultures and peoples of India.

In the fifty-two years since his unusual first entry, Stephen has traversed the subcontinent dozens of times by a wide variety of transportation in order to conduct a detailed survey of India’s village and other subcultures.

His innate friendliness has always opened doors, while his skills as a writer and photographer have allowed him to create books and museum exhibitions of material never before recorded.

Transformed By India invites the reader to join Dr. Huyler as he navigates this remarkable nation. The chapters revolve around tributes to the individuals he has known from maharajahs to musicians, Dalits to Brahmins, politicians to potters. Tying all the many stories together is the innate strength and creative capacity for improvement expressed everywhere in the subcontinent.

Early in his career as an anthropologist and art historian, Stephen Huyler recognized that most of the world had little access to feeling the pulse of the peoples of South Asia.

His seven previous books and dozens of museum exhibitions build bridges of communication between India and countries beyond its boundaries.
