The Amsterdam Archives
Photographs, letters, documents and memories, added to the record over time.
Ten years of the Hare Krishna story in Amsterdam, 1970–1979
Every community leaves a paper trail, even one that begins with a few devotees and a set of iron cooking pots. These archives gather the traces of the Amsterdam story as the book’s team has found them—photographs, letters, newspaper cuttings and the recollections of those who were there—and set them out year by year.
From a tower-block apartment to a Belgian castle: one decade, told through what it left behind.
