About the Author
This book is a fascinating account of the life of the author as an ICS officer during the last decades of the British Raj. Even in the late 1930s, the British adhered somewhat punctiliously to the outdated etiquette of the Victorian era. In a society where official hierarchy and protocol played an important part in the administrative process there was a necessity to maintain certain ‘standards’. Yezdi Gundevia has recapitulated the social and political milieu in which he worked.
