Red cloth gilt, well worn, chewed at head of front board, nearly two inch closed split of read joint, hinges cracked but internally clean. Fair. An interesting collection of anecdotal memories of late twenties India by the principal of a large mixed Hindu-Muslim college in Central India and his wife. The tone of the book is set with the first sentence, "I can't tolerate cobras in my commode!". Titles of other sections amplify this, e.g., Death of A Monkey, Tight Water, Somebody's Tiget, High Jinks and The Last Lap..
