Compilers Note
The seed for this book was sowed on the joggers track of the Madras Club, that venerable institution which for 75 years, after being for 50 years from 1832 a home away from home for the British Civil and Military, welcomed the merchant princes, many years before it did the shoppies and the retailers. On that track, far from jogging, the three of us often did something little better than a stroll. The senior-most was P Unnikrishnan, the second Indian Managing Director of the Inchcape Groups Binny & Co., one of the oldest British business houses in India, a name still around but with its only business, property. The youngest was A V Ram Mohan, brought up in a company colony in a company town, Nellikuppam, where Parry & Co.s sugar manufactures are, and who went on to spend some years with the firm after it had become Indian-owned. And the third person was me, always on the look out for a story, egging them on to recollect their experiences of life in British organisations between the 1930s and the 1970s.
For years now, I have been talking, on and off platforms, about biography as history. Ive been urging retirees to put down the stories of their lives, record their experiences at work and in the world around the workplace, not necessarily for a book, but for their grandchildren and their grandchildren to learn about their family, the life it lived and the world it lived in, once upon a time. Five hundred words a day is all you need to put down, I would urge listeners. And thats what I kept asking Unni and Ram to do. And neither would oblige, but thats when Unni said hed relate it as it was if someone would interview him or, at least, take down what he had to say. At which point, Ram chipped in, If its interviews, why only us? Why dont we get interviews from others, all over the country, whod worked in British business houses, the boxwallahs? There might be a book in it. And so, I, as the storyteller, got nominated to compile the book.
It was at the Madras Club again, a couple of weeks later, that we got together about a dozen persons who had retired from British business establishments and sounded them out on the idea. And to a man they thought it would be fun to relive those days again and, in telling others about how business was once done, it might offer a lesson or two to those in the business world of today. Some offered to put down their stories, others agreed to be interviewed. And all offered names from other British Indian commercial centres, Calcutta, Bangalore, Cochin, Coonoor, even Bombay, Delhi and Hyderabad. Best of all, N S Parthasarathy of Parrys enthusiastically promised to help with any interviews in Madras, Bangalore and Delhi.
