This book is a travelogue with a difference. From the middle of 1970s to as recently as January 2006, the author has been travelling to remote tribal areas of central India and recording his experiences, impressions and interactions with the people in these places. These experiences are juxtaposed with the writings of Verrier Elwin who lived and travelled in these areas and wrote a corpus of classic anthropological works. Das Gupta discovered Elwin’s writing by change and was inspired to revisit and reconstruct the tribal world that the latter so loved.

Prosenjit Das Gupta is an established author and has written 3 widely acclaimed books: Ten Walks in Calcutta, Walks in the Wild and Tracking Jim.
