Born into privilege, Peter Inchbald was an intellectual who spent
the latter part of World War II as an Army Captain and the sole
white man for miles around in the foothills of the Karakorums and
the Himalaya. He became a minor artist of the postwar era before
becoming an equally minor industrialist who helped bring modern
design to the silverware and cutlery trade. Later in life he
published a series of detective stories. There are really three
books in here. The first is a personal memoir, the second a family
history - an Appendix provides several family trees. The third is a
serious record, full of fascinating historical detail. Inchbald
wrote his memoir for many kinds of reader, from those who knew him
intimately to distant cousins who had never heard of him and
people, some not yet born, to whom he is a dim figure from the
past.
