That`s India is, as its title suggests, ""The Memoirs of an Old India Hand."" In ""The Early Years"" the author tells of his antecedents, his childhood in the land of his birth, India, and in that of his nationality, America. It goes on to his college days at the University of Illinois, the war years and then his career as a newspaperman. Finally are ""The Library Years"" where he found his calling in the world of books. ""That`s Write"" has samples of his writings and at the end photos to tell the reader what he looked like at various stages of his life.
