→Anglo-Indians
"A book written by Anglo-Indians about their past lives in India before many of them had emigrated to the UK, Oz, NZ and the States, when Indian Independence and partition forced them to think seriously about their future status in the land of their birth. Each chapter points up a particular aspect of being Anglo-Indian... The book deals with so many aspects of Anglo-Indian life and should be compulsory reading for anyone who has lived in pre-Independent India." The full review by Hazel Craig is on p.48-49 of the FIBIS ''Journal'' 18 (Autumn 2007). Additional reviews and information at the [http://www.blairrw.org/ctr/waywewere_pub.htm CTR website]
