1971 1999 WAR STORIES
1971. 1999. War Stories documents the ‘oral history’ of the war veterans of the Liberation and Kargil War. Culled from personal interviews, this compilation of anecdotes gives you a glimpse into the minds of those who made decisions that saved thousands of lives and possibly changed the course of history. From getting caught by the Pakistanis as a Prisoner of War, to dangerous landings on muddy grounds, healing bullet-ridden aircraft to clandestine missions carried out by our helicopter and transport stalwarts, each story brings out aspects of leadership, motivation, management and most importantly, the resilience of our soldiers in uniform. Unfiltered and unbiased, these are personal war accounts straight from the soldiers who participated in these conflicts.

BHARAT VIBHAJAN
स्वतंत्र भारत के प्रथम गृहमंत्री और ‘लौह पुरुष’ की उपाधि प्राप्त सरदार पटेल कांग्रेस के एक प्रमुख सदस्य थे। पूर्ण स्वराज्य प्राप्त करने के उद्देश्य से स्वतंत्रता आदोलन में उन्होंने महत्त्वपूर्ण भूमिका निभाई । उनके संपूर्ण राजनीतिक जीवन में भारत की महानता और एकता ही उनका मार्गदर्शक सितारा रहा। सरदार पटेल दो समुदायों के बीच आंतरिक मतभेद उत्पन्न करके ‘बाँटो और राज करो’ की ब्रिटिश नीति के कट्टर आलोचक थे।
भारत की एकता को बनाए रखना उनकी सबसे बड़ी चिंता थी। लॉर्ड माउंटबेटन ने 3 जून, 1947 को अपनी योजना घोषित की। इसमें बँटवारे के सिद्धांत को स्वीकृति दी गई। इस योजना को कांग्रेस और मुसलिम लीग ने स्वीकार किया। सरदार पटेल ने कहा कि उन्होंने विभाजन के लिए सहमति इसलिए दी, क्योंकि वह विश्वसनीय रूप से समझते थे कि ‘(शेष) भारत को संयुक्त रखने के लिए इसे अब विभाजित कर दिया जाना चाहिए। ‘
सरदार पटेल के विस्तृत पत्राचार के आधार पर प्रस्तुत पुस्तक में भारत विभाजन किन परिस्थितियों में और किन-किन कारणों से हुआ, भारतीय नेताओं की मनःस्थिति तथा तत्कालीन समाज की मन :स्थिति का साक्ष्यों के प्रकाश में विस्तृत वर्णन किया गया है । भारत विभाजन के काले अध्याय का सप्रमाण इतिहास वर्णित करती एक महत्त्वपूर्ण पुस्तक।SKU: n/a -

Six Glorious Epochs Of Indian History(PB)
Six Glorious Epochs of Indian History is a learning experience which covers the period of Muslim invasions in India and brave retaliation by the natives. No less was the struggle of Indian manes against British rule and for freedom and liberation of the mother country. The author’s tribute to the martyrs and his letters to dear ones from Andamans, miscellaneous statements and writings are also included in this book. The first four epochs are covered in only hundred plus pages while the last two epochs span almost four hundred plus pages, signifying the importance that the author gave to this period.
So far we have been given the picture of British rule, the history and politics in India by foreign and leftist writers, but in this book Veer Savarkar makes us look at the country’s history and politics from the Bharatiya perspective. Not only does he analyse the mistakes committed by Hindus since the time of Alexander’s invasion till the British rule, he tries to enlighten our minds with the prevalent situation in his time. All that he himself learnt from history, he tries to correct through this book of his.SKU: n/a
