Gordon Casserly, an Indian Army officer, describes his years at Buxa Duar, a lonely hill fort guarding a pass into Bhutan. He writes of the troop train across Bengal, the Terai jungle, a durbar with Bhutanese officials, forest rogues, a fight with an elephant and nights waiting for tigers, with all the attitudes of a British officer of the Raj.
