What happens to a family when there is an imminent threat of war? What was life like in the early days of Mandalay, Burma (Myanmar) and Agra, India? How did an Anglo Indian family live in the 1930’s under constant threat from across the borders of the British Colonies? The reader will journey with the family in this touching, and sometimes terrifying, memoir. At times a real journey and other times a spiritual one, set in the dying days of the British Raj. This is a compelling and fascinating tale that has been blended with historical events to re-create the early lives of the author’s elder siblings. Later, the writer narrates his own childhood experiences including the time spent at St. Patrick's High School in Karachi, with recollections of his favourite teachers. A creative mix of memoir and historical fiction that will engage the reader.
