Col. Suresh Biswas ((ベンガル語:সুরেশ বিশ্বাস)) (1861 – 22 September 1905) was a famous 19th-century adventurer from India. ==Life== Suresh Biswas was born in 1861 in Nathpur in Nadia district in West Bengal.He ran away from home as a teen and worked as a timber camp care taker in the Taungoo forest for a while. Biswas had travelled to England as a stowaway at age fifteen. After he arrived in England he drifted through several occupations, before becoming an animal trainer in a circus in Kent. He travelled with the circus to Hamburg. After that, he migrated to Brazil (probably one of the first Indians to do so), and fought valiantly in the Brazilian army (late 19th century). He was made a Lieutenant in the army (and a Colonel too, later). In spite of showing remarkable courage during the upsurge of rebellion he was not properly felicitated simply because of racial discrimination (he was after all a non white Hindu Asiatic in the white dominated catholic Brazil). Colonel Biswas however settled down in Brazil as he was enchanted by the natural beauty of the country. He died there in 1905. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Suresh Biswas」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
