Description
My year in an Indian fort (2nd) - Gyan Books
About The Book: In Volume 1 of My Year in an Indian Fort, Mrs. Guthrie recounts her experiences living in a British military fort in colonial India during the 19th century. The volume offers vivid descriptions of daily life, interactions with local people, and observations on Indian customs and landscapes. Her narrative blends personal anecdotes with colonial attitudes, revealing both curiosity and cultural bias. This volume sets the scene for her year-long stay and captures the early impressions of her journey. Volume 2 continues Mrs. Guthrie’s detailed account of her life in an Indian fort, focusing on the social dynamics within the British garrison and her further encounters with Indian society. She reflects on festivals, traditions, and the challenges of colonial domestic life. Her writing also touches on the roles of women and the military environment. Though colored by the colonial perspective of the time, the volume provides valuable insights into Anglo-Indian life and the complexities of cross-cultural engagement during British rule.
