Publisher's Synopsis

A fictional biography of Prince K.S. Ranjitsinhji, the legendary cricketer. Littered with cameos of personalities such as W.G. Grace, Gandhi, Disraeli and C.L.R. James, and heroic innings at Lord's, tiger-shoots and Indian palaces, the novel is about cultural identity, impersonation and dandyism.
