HAUNTING INDIA - by Margaret Deefolt
'Travel back in time to old familiar places. Re-live yesteryear sleeping under a mosquito net on a bungalow lawn,
the summer nights heady with the scent of frangipani blossoms. Hear again the distant yowl of a jackal at dusk.
Recall the rhythm and clack of the wheels over the rails of rural India - tranquil and timeless - speeds by your window.
Read tales of cultural dislocation, poignant reconciliations, and ghostly encounters. Walk the throbbing streets of Bombay,
drop into Nizams in Calcutta - and chuckle at an encounter with a macho camel trader at Pushkar.
Above all, come 'home' once more to that greatly lovely, but now vanished world of Anglo-india.'
Margaret has squeezed in yet another amazing accomplishment between her busy and active schedule in and around the Anglo Indian community!
'Haunting India' has just rolled off the press and is a collection of short fiction, a couple of poems, travel tales and memorirs.
Fifty percent of the proceeds will go to the Calcutta Tiljallah Relief Fund, run by Blair and Ellen Williams, and is indeed a worthy and noble gesture!
Don't miss out on this fantastic book and add it to your collection of Anglo-indian writers!

THE LEOPARD´S CALL : AN ANGLO-INDIAN LOVE STORY. By REGINALD SHIRES
THE LEOPARD’S CALL, AN ANGLO-INDIAN LOVE STORY, is a gripping account of a young husband and wife team. Norma and Reginald Shires, a nurse and minister, just two years into their marriage, set out to live in the wilderness grasslands of West Bengal, India, down from Bhutan. There they began teaching and building up a high school for students from rare tribal groups.
From the very first page of this eloquent brief on living a simple life and raising a family in a jungle area, you become engrossed in a hilarious yet moving true story of their unforgettable world. Anglo-Indians have often distinguished themselves in sports, entertainment, medicine, education, the railway and telegraphs and in the armed services. This story is an example of those who devote their lives to those in need.
