O autorovi
Manohar Malgonkar (1913-2010) was born in a royal family, which had its roots in Goa. After graduating from Mumbai University, he served in the Maratha Light Infantry. A big-game hunter turned conservationist, civil servant, mine owner and farmer and farmer, he also stood for Parliament in the early seventies.
