Where was the game of snooker invented? Which hills welcomed visits
from Nikita Khrushchev, Mahatma Gandhi, Pandit Nehru and also
Edward Lear? Where did Maria Montessori, Madame Blavatsky and the
Viceroys of India like to take their vacations? Where do tigers,
bisons and elephants still roam the jungles? The answer in each
case is the Nilgiri Hills of Southern India. Tennyson (though never
there) wrote of 'the sweet, half-English air of the Neilgherries'
-- and thousands have gone there to enjoy it over the past two
centuries: Princes, tourists, scholars, missionaries, soldiers and
officials alike. This book is a Who Was Who of those people, and a
broad, neatly organised, completely up to date and uniquely
detailed account of the Nilgiri Hills from every scientific
perspective -- from Anthropology to Zoology.
