Really informative. Would reccomend to anyone looking to read more about Sikh history specifically in the context of revolutions.

This is a profound and wholesome analysis of Sikhi, Sikh philosophy and it's revolutionary orientation in the context of world religions.
How compelling this book is can be decided from the fact that the author chiefly relies upon the Guru Granth Sahib foremost, and subsequently events from Sikh history, to reinforce his thesis that the Sikhs are innately sovereign by faith.
It is crucial to note that this very book exposed the canards of W.H. McLeod and decimated his so-called academic career.
This is a life altering book and should be gifted to each and every Sikh household.
