The book is built up on autobiographical stories of travels in various parts of the globe, capturing in its frame the geographical settings, the layman's geology, the historical anecdotes, some anthropological findings, narration of relevant social and academic environments, and description of stunning landscapes. This is primarily based on the author's personal diaries spanning over a few decades. The book is pictorial, and the author consolidated his narrations in sixteen independent chapters. The book starts with the author's growing up in the suburbs of Kolkata, and his education in Presidency College, now University, in Kolkata and later in the erstwhile Soviet Union. The book also narrates the unique features of the USA, the Swiss Alps, the Scandinavia, China, Africa, Australia and Middle East. The contents, however, are not designed to provide any travel guide. The book is totally apolitical. It focuses on the author's penchant for knowing and sharing diversity of the world through irresistible wanderlust.
