To some extent, the title Fin Feather and Field is
self-explanatory. Fin is more than fishing; it is an excuse to be
outdoors, not just to kill but to observe nature from diverse
angles. Feather is not just game-bird shooting but watching and
identifying birds, rearing semi-tame peacocks and gray partridges
till ready to fly, named Mustapha, Mr. Onion, and Paloma. Field
involves travel, monuments and wild life sanctuaries, tracking Tahr
in the Nilgiris and Bharal in snowbound North Sikkim. It is horse
riding, playing golf, trekking, and mountain climbing. It is
savoring a myriad cultures across India and some abroad; inviting
misadventure are part of Field. Autobiographical glimpses and
vignettes of army lifestyle find small nooks here and there. In
short, Fin Feather and Field is a celebration of the life given and
enjoyed to the hilt through over forty years, with minds open to
wonder, learning, never abandoning the mindfulness of "feeling" the
aura of strangers and places. Some of the best years lived in
tribal India on the Chota Nagpur Plateau, braving dacoits and
fearful gun-wielding Naxalites, are memorable parts of Field.
