Book Review - Battles of Dograi - 1965 - Dare Devilry of 3 Jat BN

Image
  " The Nation has a right to know and we have a duty to tell how our Captains of War keep vigil over the borders of India around the clock and sacrifice their lives so that the Nation lives" Book Title -  Battles of Dograi - 1965 - Dare Devilry of 3 Jat BN Written by - Dr. Virendra Verma This 74 pages book is a power packed account of one of the hard-fought war fought by India - The war of 1965. Very effective narration and story telling. I felt as if I was right there in the war field watching it live. It has all the minute and first hand details of the war. No nonsense and just absolute facts. Read this book to know what a soldier goes through during the war, how a soldier prepares for the war and how does it feel to be there in the war-field. This book also has take-away on the leadership qualities, the importance of discipline and keeping oneself fit and the importance of physical training. Mentions of some of the Heros from the Battle of Dograi: Lt. Col Desmond Hayde Su...

Book Review - The Girl Who Knew Too Much by Vikrant Khanna

Image
  The book starts with a question - Are you a believer or a cynic? Since, I am a believer, I picked up this book from the local library. A sweet love story of Sidhu and Sahiba that ended tragically when Sidhu dies in a car crash. Then enters the ghost Harry, who used to love Sahiba when he was alive and then helps her get back Sidhu as her guardian angel. Too Bollywoodish, I must say.  Yes, Its a fantasy novel meant mostly for the teens. The book starts well but gets slightly boring later on. The book is in the form of third person narration. Harry is telling the story of Sahiba and Sidhu to a 13 year old girl Akshara who lost her mother and is undergoing therapy to overcome her grief. The book deals with love , faith, confusions, one sided love, grief and pain of losing a loved one .  The author tried to create a romcom of a different genre which I think he did.  Towards the end, Akshara feels that Harry is her illusion while Harry keeps maintaining that h...

Book Review of Daastan-e Tawareekh

Image
  Book - Daastan-e Tawareekh Written By - Damodarlal Garg Dastaan-E-Tawareekh is a collection of 21 short stories and anecdotes from Indian History. Its written in Hindi and talks about some undisclosed aspects from history wrt the culture, some unique traditions that once prevailed in India and the neighbouring countries. The stories capture the rise and fall of kingdoms, human emotions like love,lust, jealousy and competition. The stories also talk about how humans can turn ungrateful and unfaithful and then destroy themselves. There is also a pinch of sarcasm that the author adds in these stories. Some stories that I liked: Amavasya ke din Poornima Ka Chand Vichitra Riti-Riwaz Bundel ka nayak Hardoula Premika ki yaad mein basa Hyderabad Mewar ka Bheeshm-Rajkumar Chudaji I looked for more information on this book, but could find a single mention of the same anywhere on internet. However, the other works of the author are there. I found this copy in a local library. The author men...
