Product Information
Sikhism, the fifth largest and last great religion of the world has a cosmic and humanitarian appeal; it is a modern, monotheistic faith devoid of meaningless ritual and priestly dominance. Sikhs maintain a unique identity, culture, and language; they take pride in their distinct singularity and have made sacrifices to defend their way of life. The times and circumstances transformed Sikhism by forcing them to turn political in their aim and military in their method. Sikhs have a rich and inspiring history. The projected narrative is a historic miscellany of tales culled from Sikh annals that will take the reader back in time to discover the fascinating and moving episodes from the glorious accounts of the Sikh people. This volume covers the period from inception to the collapse of power in a clash of arms with the British. The script is simple and concise and written so that each story/chapter can be enjoyed as a whole.

About Author
A 1948, Calcutta born, fourth generation soldier, and an alumnus of St Joseph's College, Nanital, Central School, Jalandhar and National Defence Academy (NDA), Khadakvasla, Bhupender was commissioned into the Regiment of Artillery of the Indian army in March 1972. During his thirty-seven-year military career, he did seven courses in mountaineering and skiing and served as an instructor in the prestigious High Altitude Warfare School (HAWS). An adventurous life that involved beholding archaic ruins and historic/religious sites in the area/vicinity of activity, coupled with facilities provided by the army helped him develop an interest in antiquity, nature and adventure sports. Sikh history had always fascinated him, but it was not until, he had hung his uniform that he was able to put pen to paper.
