Abstract

Welcome to the thirteenth edition of the International Journal of Anglo-Indian Studies. In the first article, "Emerging From Shadows", Kathleen J. Cassity discusses ArpanaSen's 1989 film Chowringhee Lane with reference to the term "unhomed". According to Cassity, Sen's work acknowledges Anglo-Indians as valuable in contrast to other films such as Cotton Mary which have unleashed a "fury" in the Anglo-Indian community.

In the second article, "On Jamalpur - Anglo-Indian Railway Officers", Blair Williams discusses his experiences as an apprentice in an elite railway institute in the late 1950's. In the last issue of the IJAIS I published an extract from an autobiography "One Hell of a Life" by Stan Blackford where he writes about his experiences in India. I have written a brief review of Stan's entertaining and amusing work to complete this issue of the journal.
