Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book Description
‘I wish I had a wife . . . (they are) literally the secret weapon of a diplomat’s success.’ Mary Seet-Cheng, Lady diplomat, Singapore Nilima Lambah, wife of Satinder Lambah, an Indian Foreign Service officer gets candid and presents a cavalcade of interesting episodes, anecdotes and fascinating experiences culled from a life she lived in a host of countries for thirty years. From leading a life under the microscope of intelligence agencies in Pakistan to hosting a dinner just a few hours after an earthquake shook their home in San Francisco – her accounts are not only witty but also present a picture of the culture and society of the various places she visited. A Life Across Three Continents offers a glimpse into different aspects of a diplomat’s life from the point of view of his wife – its glitter and glamour; its protocol and surprises; and coming to terms with foreign soil and diverse cultures. Written simply, these recollections of Nilima Lambah have something for people of all ages and from all walks of life. An amalgam of wit and humour, this is both informative and entertaining.
