About The Book: In this book, the author explores the rich and vibrant existence of the Wild Races residing in South-Eastern India, emerging from the flat expanse of Chittagong District, now located in Bangladesh, and expanding into a vast region of rugged hills and mountains inhabited by diverse hill tribes.

Moreover, the author delves into the intricate fabric of community life among these hill tribes, shedding light on their interactions with the British and the exploitation they faced from Hindu mahajan.
