Very interesting first hand look at life in India among the English during the 1930s & 40s. Plus - some very delicious recipes - here's a few of them as a sample: Sind Club Ham in Gin; Railway Lamb Curry; Spiced Scramble in Fried Bread Cups; Chingree Samosas; Baked Rose Custard; Peras (sort of a non chocolate fudge); Polo Pilaff.
