520    In 1937, Ursula Bower visited Nagaland at the invitation 
       of a friend, and on a dispensary tour encountered the Naga
       people. She was so taken was with their striking dignity, 
       tribal pride, and unique culture that she arranged to live
       among them to write an anthropological study. But she 
       became more than an observer—living alone among them, 
       Ursula was integrated into their village life, becoming 
       their figurehead when in 1944 the Japanese invaded the 
       jungles of Nagaland from Burma. The Nagas turned to her 
       for leadership and with the support of General Slim, her 
       Naga guides were armed and trained to patrol and repel the
       Japanese incursions. The Nagas’ courage and loyalty were 
       duly recognized, and after the conflict Ursula, with Naga 
       support, went on to run a jungle training school for the 
       RAF. Later, with her husband, Tim Betts, as Political 
       Officer, she worked among the volatile tribes of the 
       remote Apa Tani Valley, bordering Tibet. Following the 
       Independence of India in 1947, Ursula returned to her 
       highland roots, but to her death in 1988, her experiences 
       among the Naga people shaped and directed her life.
