(SKU: LS6000FB0E) Sarath Amunugama's autobiography sheds light on his diverse roles as a writer, administrator, and politician, correcting the lack of recorded contributions from figures in Sri Lanka. The narrative captures his life from boyhood to the early years in public administration, offering glimpses into other influential personalities. Amunugama's overlooked achievements include innovations in tea small holdings and housing for Divisional Secretaries, reflecting his commitment to public service. The narrative, rooted in the values of the Ceylon Civil Service, pays tribute to older colleagues and paints a comprehensive picture of a generation that significantly influenced Sri Lanka's socio-political landscape.
