Accompany him through his memories to his childhood in the India of the 1930s when village life was primitive. Learn from the wonderful panorama he shows us of India's culture and history.Next, he shares with us the years of hard work as he pursued his ambition to be a doctor. His career brought him to Britain in 1959 where he established new roots, finally becoming a senior consultant in a UK hospital. This is a wonderful memoir full of interesting stories of the distant and not so distant past, both personal and universal.
