Heartwarming and inspirational. (Dr Maria Aurora Couto, author). Oral history that documents poignantly the travails and suffering imposed on ordinary people by wars. (Pramod Kale, PhD Wisconsin, scholar specialising in Indian drama). Vivid recollections of an exodus, hardships and determination. (Dr Delio Mendonca, Director XCHR) A brilliant portrayal. (Cliff Pereira, FRGS, historical geographer, London) A little-remembered chapter of human history (Dr Robert S Newman, anthropologist and author) Will take a treasured place in my library (Victor Rangel-Ribeiro, US-based prizewinning novelist, alumni Mater Dei-Saligao) Feel free to pass the link to others who might be interested in reading or buying the book.
