The book reviews a range of the writings of Ruskin Bond spanning over six decades, from his

debut making novella, The Room on the Roof in 1956 to A Little Book about India in 2022. It

provides a bird’s eye view of Mr. Bond’s compendious vision as a Nature Mystic, Metaphysic,

Romantic, Environmentalist, Humanist, Historian, Biographer and Raconteur, among

others. It also incorporates vignettes of the life and experiences of the author, besides his

beliefs and philosophy. The book is an enhanced and enriched adaptation of a Doctoral

Research which contains substantial inputs from Ruskin Bond himself and these augment

the authenticity and depth of the book and gives it a first person feel.
