The book offers readers an intimate, behind-the-scenes glimpse into the challenges, humour, and camaraderie that were the hallmarks of the tea planters' lifestyle during that era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the early years, tea planting was not for the lily livered.  Often stationed in far-flung, remote estates far from city life, with one’s superiors expecting unwavering, round-the-clock commitment of their executives, it was a 24x7 tough and demanding life.   \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat best describes the common thread which runs through these tales is the ethos by which the pioneering planters lived – Work hard and play harder.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eA desire to share the fascinating experiences in tea inspired me to write a blog. What began with a piece titled ‘A Hump on the Road’ has, in course of time, evolved into more than 70 unique and personal experiences, 38 of which are included in this compilation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHardcover:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 268 \u003c\/span\u003epages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eWhite Falcon Publishing; 1 edition (June 2026)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Gurrinder Singh 'Indi' Khanna\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 9789376310920\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eProduct\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6 x 9 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlso available on:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.in\/dp\/9376310926\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"http:\/\/www.self-publish.in\/images\/channels\/azin.png\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.flipkart.com\/product\/p\/itme?pid=9789376310920\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"http:\/\/www.self-publish.in\/images\/channels\/flipkart.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"White Falcon Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48584702034090,"sku":null,"price":499.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0585\/1653\/files\/9789376310920.jpg?v=1782360715","url":"https:\/\/store.whitefalconpublishing.com\/en-qa\/products\/tete-a-tea-anecdotes-from-a-life-immersed-in-tea","provider":"WFP Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
