Nariman Karkaria (1894–1949) joined the British Army during the First World War and saw action on three different fronts. His Gujarati war memoir, Rangbhoomi par Rakhad—the only First World War account written by an Indian to have been discovered thus far—was published in 1922. His second book, Iranbhoomi par Rakhad (1925), is an account of his year-long rambles in Iran.
