When a community of walkers hit the road in February 2013, the quiet town of Dehradun stood up and took notice. Been There Doon That, an initiative by heritage revivalist Lokesh Ohri, began educating people about their need to preserve heritage and save the environment. Ohri’s latest book Walking With Laata (Book World; Rs 499), with maps, instructions and trivia, is a lively encounter with the past, and its relevance to our future.
