"Military History of the Sikhs: From Battle of Bhangani to the World War II" highlights the militarization of Sikhs over a period of three centuries. Starting from the wars of Guru Gobind Singh during the pre-Khalsa phase, the book covers the Sikh inferno under Banda Singh Bahadur. Subsequently, the war tactics of Sikhs during the dark phase of persecution, coupled with effective blitzkrieg strategies, led to the generation of a military potential, which was sufficient to dishevel the forces of a renowned Durrani soldier Ahmad Shah Abdali. Also encompassed is the rise and fall of the Sikh Misls, along with the lesser talked about Sikh battles, against Marathas and Rohillas. Thereafter, a glorious empire was established from Khyber to Aksai Chin under the remarkable leadership of Maharaja Ranjit Singh through his outstanding Generals like Hari Singh Nalwa, Akali Phoola Singh, etc and later the Khalsa flag even flew in the snowfields of Tibet under the generalship of Zorawar Singh.

The book attempts to trace the journey of a more than three centuries old family whose ancestors were not only close to Guru Gobind Singh and fought in almost all battles by his side and Banda Singh Bahadur but also contributed to the freedom of the region of Punjab, India from the reins of Islamic (Mughal and Afghan) rulers. To compose this work, the author collected information from various books and literature related to his family, including old records left by his father. The book is about Sikhs, their history, misls, kingdoms, conflicts, religion, roots, and a family. The author is the direct descendant of the seventeenth- century Sikh soldier and a scribe. Coming from one of the oldest Sikh families of undivided Punjab in India, his ancestors were closely connected with the history of Sikhs much before Maharaja Ranjit Singh formed the Sikh empire. Commissioned in the Indian Army, the author took early retirement after serving for more than thirty years in various parts of the country. While in service, he held a variety of staff and operational appointments. He handled military affairs at field, helm, command, instructional, and staff levels about operational intelligence and counterinsurgency affairs, which helped him to undertake this project. Colonel Singh is an avid golfer and is leading a retired life.

In late-eighteenth-century India, the glory of the Mughal emperors was fading, and ambitious newcomers seized power, changing the political map forever. Enter the legendary Maharajah Ranjit Singh, whose Sikh Empire stretched throughout northwestern India into Afghanistan and Tibet. Priya Atwal shines fresh light on this long-lost kingdom, looking beyond its founding father to restore the queens and princes to the story of this empire's spectacular rise and fall. She brings to life a self-made ruling family, inventively fusing Sikh, Mughal and European ideas of power, but eventually succumbing to gendered family politics, as the Sikh Empire fell to its great rival in the new India: the British. Royals and Rebels is a fascinating tale of family, royalty and the fluidity of power, set in a dramatic global era when new stars rose and upstart empires clashed.

The beginning of the 19th century saw the rise of a remarkable Sikh leader in the Punjab province of north-west India. Unifying the feudal rulers under his authority, the conquering Maharaja Ranjit Singh pursued campaigns of expansion for nearly 40 years, creating for the purpose a new regular army on the Western model. His death in 1839 found the frontiers of Sikh and British power in confrontation; in the 1840s the inevitable trial of strength brought British crown and East India Company troops into battle against the most formidable Indian army they ever faced. Its story is told here in fascinating detail, illustrated with rare early paintings and with colourful reconstructions of Punjabi regular soldiers and feudal warriors.

Prior to the 1960s, the term “Buffalo Soldier” was a fairly obscure one. Then, a trickle of titles became a torrent of books, articles, novels, monuments, and expanding numbers of historic sites along with museums all of which have changed the picture. Even an occasional nod from television and movies helped transform these once relatively little-known Black U.S. Army troops into familiar figures, who have taken their place in a mythic past. Indeed, powerful imagemakers from William F. “Buffalo Bill” Cody and his Congress of Rough Riders to Frederic Remington, the dean of frontier artists, helped lionize the Black troops whose exploits brought them to the American West, Cuba, the Philippines, Mexico, Alaska, and Hawaii in the years between 1866 and 1916. Despite a significant shift in emphasis, numerous efforts treating this element of the vital, complex story of the post-Civil War U.S. Army frequently repeated earlier studies rather than added fresh perspectives. Also, the narrative typically ended with the so-called Indian Wars or Spanish American War. Many authors likewise dwelt on military operations rather than numerous other relevant contributions and activities of these men who played a role in the nation’s complex evolution during the half century after the American Civil War. Profusely illustrated with compelling images and detailed maps, along with an array of appendices, this latest addition to the Buffalo Soldier saga represents over five decades of research by military historian John P. Langellier. Further, More Work an Glory: Buffalo Soldiers in the United States Army, 1866–1916 combines the best features of prior scholarship while enhancing the scope with new or underused primary sources. The author views the subject through the broader perspectives of race. He sets the text against the backdrop of the transition of the U.S. Army from a frontier constabulary to an international power. In the process, he highlights the staggering assortment of non-military missions including assignments to national parks and forests; road building; exploration; pioneer military bicycling; duty along the explosive border between the United States and Mexico; employment as agents of law and order, along with a litany of other contributions that enhanced an impressive combat record against formidable Native Americans and others. Langellier frames the narrative within the context of continuity and change from Reconstruction in the 1860s through the early twentieth century. Above all, he focuses on the soldiers themselves to provide a human perspective as well as challenges prevalent misconceptions that often overshadow more fascinating facts.
