Congratulations Selma.Wonderful and Great!GEMs need to know their actual
documented history.The era of hand-me-down information is over.I fully
understand why you have to make your book factual, entertaining, and perhaps a
bit fictional.

Dear members,
I am delighted to share with you the cover of my forthcoming book "Guts, Glory
and Empire: The Epic Story of Goans in Zanzibar, 1865-1910," published by
Speaking Tiger, which will be released in 20 days, and available on amazon and
leading bookstores across South Asia.
It's a human story about Goans who arrived in Zanzibar doing modest jobs and
went on to become incredibly wealthy. It reads like a novel but at the same
time, lets you have a very unique glimpse of 19th century Goan society, their
ambitious, their politics, their petty jealousies, fears and prejudices. It's
fast-paced and entertaining, the sort of history book on Goa you've not read
before.
All best wishes,
Selma CarvalhoAuthor of Guts, Glory & Empire: The Epic Story of Goans in
Zanzibar, 1865-1910, published by Speaking Tiger.
