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.

His works span all genres from novels to biographies to history books including A Bend in the Ganges (Roli Books) and Combat of Shadows (Roli Books).
