সি.পি. বেলিয়াপ্পা

c.p. belliappa has written extensively about Coorg (officially known as Kodagu), covering the history of the land and its people. His writings encompass the affairs of its erstwhile kingdom, which went on to become a British-administered territory, followed by being a tiny model state in the Indian Union post Independence and, finally, its present-day avatar as a district in Karnataka after the States Reorganisation Act of 1956. In this collection of stories and essays, Belliappa has delved deeper into antiquity, covering a wide range of topics relevant to understanding the ethos of Coorg. His other books are Tale of a Tiger’s Tail & Other Yarns from Coorg, Nuggets from Coorg History, Victoria Gowramma: The Lost Princess of Coorg and Tongue of the Slip: Looking Back on Life with Humour.
