Publisher's Synopsis
Going Back is a heart-warming account of Monica Jackson's return to the Biligirirangan Hills of Karnataka and the coffee estates where she grew up. Daughter of an English estate owner, her early years were spent on the family plantations in pre-Independent India. Her recollections of those times and the adventures that mark her 'homecoming', provide the book with both it's charm and humour. As a scholar of anthropology, Jackson writes with genuine feeling for the region and its people, bringing alive the world that she has carried in her heart all these years.
