Sepia Prints is a glimpse at the last days of the British Raj in India and the first days of Independence through the eyes of a missionary who lived and worked among the Telugus of South Central India during this period. The materials used are primarily from personal reflections and experiences. The illustrations were drawn by family members or taken from family albums.
