Indian Summer is a witty and affectionate evocation in pictures and letters of the last days of the British Raj and of the early years after the independence that divided India into several parts. For eight years during and after the Second World War India was April Swayne-Thomas's second home. Where usually with her husband, Geoffrey, but sometimes alone when travelling to paint murals, she came to love the great country. She has many things to say about poverty, ignorance, superstition and of the later enmity that grew between different parts of the populations.
