To keep shipping costs as low as possible, we recommend placing smaller print book orders whenever practical. Orders that exceed our print partner's U.S. shipping weight limit may be fulfilled from a U.K. facility, resulting in significantly higher shipping charges. If you're purchasing several print books, placing two or more smaller orders will often reduce your shipping costs.
The Horse That Refused — Badal means cloud, and on the morning of the most important journey of Vikram Sahu's trading career in Rajasthan in 1060, Badal stands in the courtyard of the caravanserai and does not move. In Vikram's experience, this is not a thing that horses do. The story is about what a very expensive source of goodwill knows that his owner doesn't.
