‘India’s Battlefieldsfrom Kurukshetra to Balakot” – written by Ajay Singh was released by the Chief of Naval Staff in New Delhi on 01 Nov 10. It is an account of 42 of India’s major battles covering 3000 years of recorded historybeginning with the seminal battle of Kurukshetra right down to the recent action in Balakot in the backdrop of the Kashmir conflict.
The battles are covered in an easy conversational style in around 1500 words each and told in the form of a story. Maps and photos have been used to embellish the battles and make them come alive. Virtually every battle in India’s history has been covered in its pages.
Human interest stories and vignettes are liberally sprinkled which provide hitherto unknown insights and also makes easy and interesting reading. The book would appeal not only to the military mind but to all readers who seek a greater understanding of India’s battles.
I do hope you would enjoy the book.
