THIS book, of obvious interest to Punjabis the world
over, is the result of a happy coincidence. Its author had lived
in the Punjab for about a decade and developed deep interest in
its history and culture. After his return to New Zealand as
Professor of History he nostalgically sought the Punjabis
settled there. Meanwhile, the authorities of Guru Nanak Dev
University thought of promoting studies concerned with the life
of Punjabis settled abroad. Dr McLeod's project appeared to
harmonize with that aspiration. His own association with the
University induced him to send the manuscript to us.
