Description
Journey to the Hills and other Stories
It was a simpler life in the 1960's. There was no television or hectic activity and families still took long, leisurely summer vacations in hill stations like Mussoorie. An army band played in the evenings at the Band Stand near the Library. Miss Mussoorie contests were the highlight of the season. People took long walks in the glorious sunshine and socialised with their friends on the Mall Road as the sun set over Vincent Hill. The schools were thriving, and summer visitors looked forward to their annual fetes.
These stories are based on the experiences of an extended family during their summer holidays in Mussoorie in the 1960s seen through the eyes of children. So, dear reader, enjoy the gentle charms of a forgotten time and the innocence of childhood as you turn the pages of this little book.
"...The author paints a beautiful picture of a bygone era..." Ambi Parameswaran
"...Captures the joys, excitement and anxieties of a family group..." Rishiyur Nikhil
"...The finest portrait of all...is of Mussoorie itself..." Robin Alexander
