Description: This book is a work of autobiographical narratives by Dhan Gopal Mukerji. It consists of two parts that contain Mukerji's different episodes of life in India and America. The first part begins with his boyhood in their Brahmin family in a village on the outskirts of Calcutta. It noticeably displays his belief in the rightness of the caste system and the supremacy of Brahmins. The second part of the book narrates Mukerji's life in America and describes his pre-conceived notions of America as a capitalist state. This part also presents a vivid account of Mukerji's friendship with his socialist and anarchist friends while living in California as a domestic help and farm labourer.
