Goa became a landmark on the hippie trail through India in the 1960s, thanks to its too-good-to-be-true beaches and laidback lifestyle. But the first western visitors to reach this idyllic locale arrived much earlier: they came from Portugal in the sixteenth century, and claimed Goa on behalf of their King and their God.

David Tomory explores the outside influences at work on Goa from the time of the Portuguese to the present day and how they have fused with local culture to produce a distinctly different Indian state. From the horrors of the Inquisition to the rise of Generation Techno, he provides an entertaining and informative tour through the life of Goa. He reveals what Goa is actually like for both westerners and Goans, and catches Goa as it stands on the brink of a complicated future.
