White as the Shroud : India, Pakistan and War on the Frontiers of KashmirBetween South and Central Asia, in the high mountains and cold deserts, India, Pakistan and China have fought brutal wars over barren, uninhabited territory in a bid for control over their national peripheries, including Xinjiang and Tibet in China, and Jammu and Kashmir on the Indian subcontinent. White as the Shroud explores this broader story through the most surreal of such conflicts: the Siachen war, fought between India and Pakistan for control

Between South and Central Asia, in the high mountains and cold deserts, India, Pakistan and China have fought brutal wars over barren, uninhabited territory in a bid for control over their national peripheries, including Xinjiang and Tibet in China, and Jammu and Kashmir on the Indian subcontinent. White as the Shroud explores this broader story through the most surreal of such conflicts: the Siachen war, fought between India and Pakistan for control of the eponymous glacier. The tale of Siachen highlights the absurdity of seeking hard borders in such desolate mountains, as well as the brutality of high-altitude warfare-- more soldiers were killed by the weather and terrain than by the fighting. As one of the few people to have visited both sides of the glacier, Indian and Pakistani, Myra MacDonald provides a first-hand view of the battlefield and a wealth of eyewitness testimony from combatants. She sets this account in the overarching narrative of the Kashmir conflict, India's defeat by China in 1962, and the 1999 India-Pakistan Kargil war. White as the Shroud brings a fresh perspective to one of the most volatile corners of the world, raising questions about borders and the wars fought to defend them.

Soft Lining and Elegant Design
Color: White, Size: 3-Layer
This jewelry box offers great value and has a surprisingly high-quality appearance upon arrival. I think it would be an ideal size for someone with a small to medium-sized jewelry collection, providing ample space without being too bulky. The compartment layout seems very well-thought-out and functional for organizing a standard assortment of jewelry, including dedicated slots for rings, grids for earrings, and longer slots for necklaces, which should prevent tangling. The velvet or felt lining inside feels very soft, providing good protection for delicate jewelry pieces. Overall, I am impressed with this jewelry box and would definitely recommend it to others.

Very impressive jewelry box
Color: White, Size: 3-Layer, Color: White, Size: 3-Layer
The Global Ka three drawer jewelry box is very impressive. When I first opened the box my immediate reaction was “Oh, wow!” It’s really pretty. There is a glass lid and separate areas for rings, earrings, bracelets and necklaces. I really like it and think it would make a great gift. Unfortunately, the jewelry box I received did have some quality control issues (several noticeable flaws on the front, as visible in the photos); otherwise, this would definitely be rated 5 stars. Though disappointing, the flaws do not affect the function of the jewelry box. I will still enjoy using it and consider it a good value for the money.
