From the ancient settlement of Makuilongdi to the challenges of modern Naga politics, The Trail from Makuilongdi traces the history of the Zeliangrong people—Zeme, Liangmai, Inpui, and Rongmei. It recounts their shared ancestry, their sacrifices in the Naga struggle, and the impact of events such as the 1975 Shillong Accord. Blending history with firsthand insight, the book is a moving account of a people's resilience, unity, and enduring search for dignity.
