A rare collection of essays that invites the reader to revisit a
vanished era of sahibs and memsahibs. From Lord Mountbatten to Peggy Holroyde to Maurice and Taya Zinkin, Britishers who lived
and worked in India reminisce about topics and points of interest as varied as the Indian Civil Service and the Roshanara Club, shikar
and hazri, the Amateur Cine Society of India and the Doon School,
Rudyard Kipling and Mahatma Gandhi.
Selected from a series of articles commissioned by Khushwant Singh when he was the editor of the Illustrated Weekly of India, these
delightfully individualistic and refreshingly candid writings reveal
a fascinating array of British attitudes, experiences, observations, fond memories, the occasional short-lived grouse and, above all, a deep and abiding affection and respect for India.
