Gilbert Menezes, (retd. I. N) comments

I bought your book a month ago and I wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed reading it, so I took it along to the US as a gift for my daughter. I am sure she will derive the same pleasure I got from reading it . I must congratulate you for your research into the lives of our forgotten Goan brethren, and also for your fluid and absorbing style of writing. I am confident that your book will enrich the Goan literary scene...my grand uncle Dr Rozendo Ribeiro who rode on a zebra on the streets of Nairobi...Incidentally, my good friend Damascene Soares who presently lives in Aldona spent many hours in the water after his ship DARA was sunk, an incident also mentioned in your book
