I think Gardam listed some references at the end of Old Filth but my copy came from the library so I don’t have it to hand.

Anyone know of sources to read of “empire” or “raj” orphans? I understand that Rudyard Kipling’s biographical “Something of Myself” discusses his life as a “raj” orphan, but that’s all I’ve found so far.
