  1. Yash Bajpai

    I enjoyed learning about the Badaga community and their unique traditions. It is a bit long-winded, but the content is worth it.

  2. Jasprit Singh

    It is an okay read about the Badagas. I feel it lacked a certain spark to truly captivate me.

  3. Anubhav Pandey

    A fascinating glimpse into the Badaga community’s history. Hockings’ research is commendable, though the writing can be a bit dense at times.

  4. Dayal Singh

    The book is well-researched but found it somewhat dry. Still, a valuable contribution to South Indian history.

  5. Mohit Rao

    A truly eye-opening read! ‘So Long a Saga’ offers rich insights into a little-known culture. Highly recommended for history buffs.

  6. Ravi Raj

    So Long a Saga is good book with a little slow pace. The initial chapters are hard to get through. Overall, a valuable read!

  7. Anshul Singla

    Hockings paints a vivid picture of the Badagas’ journey. A bit dense in places, but ultimately a rewarding and insightful read.

  8. Anitej Nayan Gopal

    Hockings does a good job covering the history but I feel as though the book dragged on for too long. Overall, an okay read.

  9. Prajwal Deep

    A must-read for anyone interested in South Indian cultures! I was completely engrossed. It is an important work.

  10. Mohd Ashar Mujeeb

    I was captivated by the resilience of the Badaga people. The book sometimes felt academic, but I appreciate the depth of research.

  11. Rachit Gupta

    An informative book on South Indian history. It is a detailed account, though could benefit from more engaging storytelling.

  12. Mayank Nilesh Limaye

    Loved learning about the Badagas! Hockings brings their story to life. Wish there were more personal anecdotes, but still a great read.
