IMPRISONED IN INDIA

This true story spans three continents * It concerns the adventures of an educated South African, who was captured by the British during the Boer war (1899-1902) * The prisoner of war (POW) was imprisoned in what was then British India. Whilst in Captivity, he visited Indian localities such as Madras, Trichinopoly, Kolar, Amritsar, and Bangalore. Being observant, he made notes on what he experienced. His observations form the centrepiece of this book * The POW's descriptions of Bangalore in 1901 are particularly detailed, and will fascinate anyone who knows the city today * This book will appeal to anyone interested in the histories of South Africa and/or India *
